Heat a wok or large frying-pan and add the oil. When hot, add the scallions, garlic, yellow bean sauce, chili bean sauce, and ginger and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Allow the mixture to cool thoroughly.

Drain the noodles and combine them with the cool seasonings, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Garnish with the coriander and serve within 3 hours.
