Lo Mein Recipe
cook time: 20-25 minutes
serving size: 2-3 people
Ingredients:
8 oz (about 225g) lo mein noodles or egg noodles
2 cups LEASA bean sprouts
1 cup Chinese chives (cut into 2-inch pieces)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon fresh ginger (minced)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Cook the lo mein noodles according to the package instructions until they are al dente. Drain and set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add bean sprouts and Chinese chives to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly wilted but still crisp-tender.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Pour the sauce over the vegetables in the skillet and toss to coat evenly. Cook for another minute to heat through.
Add the cooked lo mein noodles to the skillet with the vegetables and sauce. Toss everything together until the noodles are well coated with the sauce and heated through.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, garnish with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, or chili flakes for extra flavor and texture.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious homemade lo mein with bean sprouts and Chinese chives!
