Ingredients

Sauce

2 tablespoons dark soy sauce (sub regular soy sauce if needed) (Affiliate link)

1 tablespoon light soy sauce (sub regular soy sauce if needed) (Affiliate link)

3 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon sugar

1 clove of garlic, grated (optional)

Lo Mein

4-6 ounces uncooked ramen noodles

1 tablespoon sesame oil

3 green onions, chopped (separate green parts from white parts – you’ll use both separately)

2-3 cups julienne cut or chopped vegetables like carrots, red peppers, cabbage, bok choy, mushrooms, or broccoli

1-2 tablespoons mirin

Directions

Sauce

Shake all the sauce ingredients together in a jar.

Noodles

Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

Lo Mein

Heat the sesame oil in a large wok or skillet. Add the green onions (white parts) and vegetables to the hot pan. Stir fry until fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the mirin to loosen the browned bits up off the bottom of the pan. Add the cooked noodles and about half of the sauce – toss around in the hot pan to combine. Add more sauce if needed (I usually gauge the amount of sauce I want by the color of the noodles – you want a medium brown color, not too light, not too dark). Serve topped with remaining green onions!
