Be careful not to overcook the vegetables. Add soy sauce, shrimp and salt and pepper to taste. Mix together until the shrimp is cooked.
Take the vegetables out of the wok after cooking and set them aside. Pour the chicken broth into the wok and bring to a boil. Add rice stick noodles. After the noodles are cooked, add the cooked vegetables to the wok and mix well.
If desired, add Chinese celery to taste and to add aroma to the dish. If Chinese celery is not available, then skip the ingredient. Do not replace it with regular celery.
