- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp sesame oil
Cooking Oil
- 2 tbsp oil
Instructions
- Cook noodles: Prepare the chow mein noodles according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside to prevent overcooking.
- Sauté garlic: Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Cook vegetables: Add the mixed vegetables (cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, bean sprouts) to the wok and stir-fry until they become slightly tender but still crisp, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- Add noodles: Incorporate the cooked and drained chow mein noodles into the pan with the vegetables, tossing gently to combine.
- Mix sauce: Stir in soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil evenly over the noodles and vegetables. Toss everything together thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are coated with the sauce.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle sliced green onions over the chow mein as garnish and serve the dish hot for optimal flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use any vegetables you need to use up, such as broccoli, snap peas, or mushrooms for variety.
