Mein Hot App Download

I make this for dinner all the time!

My brothers are super picky but absolutely adore lo mein. We make dumplings as a side and serve it with white rice to make it more filling. This recipe is the perfect mesh of sweet and spicy. Sometimes I substitute the Sriracha for garlic chili oil if I want an extra kick. Overall a great recipe.

I just made this tonight and first of all I am feeling very proud of myself! It is absolutely delicious and quite easy. The lo mein noodles I used were pretty wide and soaked up all of the sauce, all became a little dry. I made another bowl of the sauce, added and it was perfect. I used peas, spinach, onion, mushrooms and shrimp.

Thank you for sharing this recipe. My favorite Chinese restaurant closed and I had been trying to to recreate their lo mein for several years. With your noodle sauce I finally nailed it! I use a mung bean sprouts, carrots and green onions for the veggies in my version. I also thin slice beef (usually flank or sirloin steak) and marinade it in equal parts soy sauce, cornstarch and veggie oil. Your noodle sauce was this missing piece of the puzzle for me and now lo mein is in regular dinner rotation in my home. Thanks again!

In the remaining oil, saut your garlic and ginger for 15 seconds, followed by the scallion white and vegetables. Saut for 3 to 4 minutes until slightly wilted and charred. Add the lo mein noodles, chicken, and sauce and mix thoroughly for 1-2 minutes. Continue cooking until sauce has thickened and is evenly coated. Add scallion greens, mix, and enjoy!

These are cooked chow mein noodles that do not require boiling. They are quite similar to packaged Japanese Yakisoba or Chuka noodles, where you can directly put the noodles into the stir fry from the bag.

I chose an easy mix of mushrooms, bell peppers, cabbage, and green onion for my vegetable lo mein, but there are so many other great things you can add! Here are a few ideas of things you can add from your fridge or the salad bar.

Traditionally lo mein noodles are wheat and egg pasta, so if you can find that or something close to it, that would be a win. If you can make it to an Asian market you can definitely get some awesome noodles for a very low price.

As my 18 year-old son put it, this dish tasted good, but was just wrong. I bought fresh lo mein noodles and put them right on the sheet pan. They got hard and burned. We crunched our way through one meal, but I doubt anyone is coming back for another. I definitely should have given them a plunge in water so that they could then cook in a steamy oven.

While you may think the dishes we ordered from the standard takeout menu were similar to what we were eating every night for dinner, nothing could really be further from the truth. Dishes like beef and broccoli, Singapore Mei Fun, and chicken lo mein were a rare treat.

If using uncooked lo mein noodles, be sure to follow the directions on the package. Boil them until they are just cooked (al dente), dump them into a colander, give them a quick rinse in warm water, and drain thoroughly.

My preferred veggies for this dish include: carrots, cabbage, bean sprouts, and scallions. This is the combination I remember from my favorite lo mein growing up. I think it offers the perfect mix of textures and flavors, and adding freshness and crunch without overpowering the dish.

Then reduce the heat to medium and cover the wok for one minute. Remove the cover and add the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and sugar. (You can also mix up this lo mein sauce in advance.)

Note: Nutrition information in recipe card below is for 1/6 of the recipe (1 serving). Total time to prepare the recipe does not include time to boil noodles. If using uncooked lo mein, add another 10-15 mins to your prep time. Store any leftovers in an airtight container. The best way to reheat is in the microwave.

Hey there, Nova, thanks for sharing your experience with the chow mein! The lack of flavour could be a result of the noodle-to-sauce ratio being too high in case you might have used more noodles or a different type of noodle. Glad that the extra sauces did the trick though ?

Just made this for lunch and it was such an amazing fast recipe that really impressed everyone. Added some ginger because I had some and it worked with the flavors. Next time I might try finishing with some fresh lime juice just for some extra zing (though it wouldn't be traditionally chow- mein-y).

So happy to hear, Colette! To reheat the chow mein leftovers, we prefer to warm it up on the stove over medium-low heat with a splash of water or sauce to prevent drying, and covering with a lid helps. Otherwise, you can also microwave it in short intervals, stirring in between, until heated ?

The homemade chow mein sauce is amazing in this recipe! Combine soy sauce, light sesame oil, oyster sauce, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and chicken broth to make the signature sweet and savory sauce that makes chow mein taste authentic.

Hi Lydia, chow mein are really the best for this recipe but substitutions may work. Also, if you are lucky, you will find pre-cooked chow mein noodles in the refrigerated section that can be thrown straight into your pan. I also have them linked on the ingredient list where you can purchase them on Amazon. I hope that helps.

I added some other ingredients to the dish like red and green peppers,yellow onions,cooking sherry,oyster sauce,broccolli,and substituted linguine noodles for chow mein noodles,and added sliced pork. It was really good.

My lo mein journey starts way back in my junior high days. I lived in a suburb outside of the Twin Cities; it was fairly small at the time but just on the cusp of growing into another metropolitan hot spot.

Chow mein noodles are parboiled, then finish cooking through a stir-fry process. Chow mein noodles are thinner egg noodles that are the star of the dish. Lo mein noodles are completely cooked in boiling water before getting tossed with the sauce and other ingredients; the noodles are typically thicker to hold up to the saucy consistency of the dish.

In short, vegetable lo mein is a Chinese dish made with soft, saucy egg noodles. It typically includes protein, but in this veggie lo mein we are loading up all the vegetables. You can use a mix of your favorite vegetables or any variety of the ones listed here.

For this lo mein recipe, I use store-bought dried Chinese egg noodles for ease, as I know I can always find them in the grocery store nearby. There are several other noodle options you can go with, however.

In an effort to keep things as easy as possible for you, we are using dried noodles (again, typically more of a chow mein thing) and then cooking them fully before tossing them with the other ingredients (lo mein there!).

In truth, it can mean a variety of different kind of noodle dishes, much like how you can order spaghetti in a variety of ways. In North America, we tend to associate lo mein with the American Chinese take out style of noodles: somewhat thick egg noodles stir fried and tossed with a soy based sauce, vegetables, and proteins.

The main difference between lo mein and chow mein are the noodles used. Lo mein noodles are thicker and chewier and chow mein noodles are thinner and crisper. Chow mein is cooked longer in the pan so the noodles become crispy and lo mein is simply tossed so the noodles stay soft. Pictured below: soy sauce chow mein.

Both kinds of noodles are made with flour, water, eggs, and kansui (which is what makes the noodles yellow and chewy). They differ mostly in hydration and shape. Lo mein noodles have a higher hydration and are thicker which makes them chewier and more plush. Chow mein noodles are thinner, drier, and crisp up more because they have a lower hydration. After cooking, lo mein noodles are soft and supple and chow mein noodles are springy and chewy.

Note: Many lo mein sauces on the internet contain oyster sauce and while oyster sauce is super delicious, we kept it vegetarian/vegan here without. If you want to add oyster sauce for an extra bit of umami, you can add 2 tbsp oyster sauce to the above recipe.

The beauty of lo mein is that you can add virtually anything to it and it will taste amazing. Any and all proteins and vegetables are welcome to the party. Just make sure to cut everything into bite size pieces.

We can find this dish in most Chinese restaurants and one of the most popular noodles that we always loves to order again and again. In this recipe I'll share my homemade version of beef lo mein recipe with everyday simple ingredients but it tastes just like you've had at your favourite Chinese restaurant! Maybe better!

Lo Mein Noodles are basically made of flour and egg and thick round texture. In Cantonese, it means tossed noodles and you can add in your stir fry, soup or braised noodle dishes. The main difference with chow mein noodles is texture and preparation, chow mein noodles are thinner in texture and fried until slightly crisp. While lo mein is a wet stir fry dish tossed in loads of sauce, meat and vegetables.

You don't need any wok skills, special ingredients or equipment to create this dish. You can use wok, skillet or any large non-stick pan, just make sure your pan is hot and large enough to toss the noodles evenly. With our simple tips, you can create restaurant-quality beef lo mein, which taste way better than any takeout! Super fast and super budget-friendly too!

Lo mein noodles are thick and chewy yellow noodles, made with egg, wheat flour and water. To taste like an authentic Chinese Lo Mein recipe, I recommend to use fresh lo mein noodles which can be find at Chinese/Oriental supermarkets fridge section. However, for those who can't get fresh lo mein, we can make it happen with the nearest substitute, like spaghetti, linguine, ramen, chow mein or any of your favourite egg noodles would works with this recipe. You just need to prepare the noodles by the packet instructions.

Use any stir fry vegetables that you have in your fridge. I usually love to add, cabbage, carrot, mushroom, sweet large onion, snow peas and bell peppers in my lo mein. Bok choy, napa cabbage, broccoli, baby corn goes well too! e24fc04721
