Ingredients
- For the Lo Mein:
- 400g (14 oz) fresh Lo Mein noodles (or cooked egg noodles)
- 250g (9 oz) beef sirloin, tenderloin, rump, or any tender cut of beef
- 3–4 mushrooms (sliced)
- 2–3 spring onions (cut into 2″ pieces)
- 1 bell pepper (julienned)
- 2–3 cabbage leaves (thinly sliced)
- 5–6 snow peas
- 1 small carrot (julienned)
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- For the Sauce:
- 2 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 tsp dark soy sauce
- 4 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- ¼ tsp white pepper
- For the Beef Marinade:
- 1 tbsp sauce mix (from the sauce ingredients)
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- ¼ tsp baking soda
Instructions
- Blanch the Noodles: Blanch the fresh Lo Mein noodles with hot water for 1-2 minutes, drizzle with sesame oil, and mix well. Set aside.
- Make the Sauce: In a small mixing bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients. Set aside.
- Prepare the Vegetables and Beef: Wash and cut all vegetables into slices. Slice the beef thinly against the grain.
- Marinate the Beef: Marinate the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon of the sauce mixture for 10-15 minutes.
- Stir-Fry the Beef: Heat a wok or pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbsp of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the marinated beef slices. Flatten the beef in the pan and sear for 1-2 minutes, then stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes.
- Add Vegetables: Add the vegetables, starting with the harder ones (carrot, bell pepper), and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Combine Noodles and Sauce: Create space in the middle of the wok, add the noodles, and pour the sauce mixture over the noodles. Toss all ingredients together for 2-3 minutes until everything is well-coated and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from heat and transfer to a serving plate. Optionally top with extra chopped spring onions and chili oil for extra flavor and heat. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Noodles: You can use fresh or pre-cooked egg noodles as a substitute for Lo Mein noodles.
- Customize: Feel free to add other vegetables like bok choy or mushrooms, or adjust the sauce to your preference.
