Veggie Chow Mein Recipes

Steps:

• In a wok or deep skillet over medium-high heat, heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil, then add the par-cooked noodles. Cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the noodles to crisp, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• In the same wok, heat the remaining tablespoon of cooking oil over medium-high heat and add the onion, bell pepper, broccoli, and carrot. Stir and cook for 2 minutes, then add the garlic and season with salt and pepper. Stir and continue to cook for 2 minutes, or until the onions are translucent.
• Add the cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, snow peas, and corn.
• In a small bowl, combine the water and cornstarch. Mix with a fork to dissolve the cornstarch, then add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice wine, sugar, and white pepper. Mix well.
• Pour the sauce over the vegetables. Mix well and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened.
• Add the crispy noodles to the wok, mix well and add bean sprouts. Toss gently and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until everything is well-combined. Garnish with sliced scallions.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Prep all vegetables before you begin cooking.
• Heat a wok or saute pan over high heat and add the oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the garlic and grated ginger, and stir-fry for a few seconds. Add the carrots, snow peas and bok choy stalks. Stir-fry for a minute.
• Add a splash of water to create steam to help cook the vegetables. Add the blanched broccoli florets, bok choy leaves and the julienned red bell pepper. Stir fry for another minute.
• Add in the noodles and toss to combine. Add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili oil and toasted sesame oil. Season with ground white pepper. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix broth, cornstarch, oyster sauce and pepper sauce; set aside.
• Heat oil in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook garlic and frozen vegetables in oil about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Stir in coleslaw mix and broth mixture. Cook and stir 1 1/2 minutes. Serve over noodles.

Steps:

• Bring 8 cups unsalted water to a boil in a 6- to 8-quart pot, then add noodles, stirring to separate, and cook 15 seconds. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water until noodles are cool, then shake colander briskly to drain excess water.
• Stir together soy sauce, rice wine, oyster sauce, and cornstarch with 1/4 teaspoon white pepper in a small bowl until smooth, then stir in chicken broth.
• Heat wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within 1 to 2 seconds of contact, then add 1/2 cup peanut oil and heat until just smoking. Carefully add noodles all at once, flattening top to form a 9-inch cake. Cook until underside is golden, 4 to 5 minutes, rotating noodle cake with a metal spatula to brown evenly and lifting edges occasionally to check color.
• Carefully flip noodle cake over with spatula and tongs, then cook, rotating cake, until other side is golden, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer noodle cake to a large paper-towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Discard any oil remaining in wok and wipe out wok with paper towels.
• Transfer drained noodle cake to a platter and loosely cover with foil to keep warm.
• Heat wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within 1 to 2 seconds of contact.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil to wok over high heat. When oil just begins to smoke, add ginger and garlic and stir-fry 5 seconds, then add scallions and stir-fry 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and stir-fry until softened, about 3 minutes. Add choy sum and stir-fry until leaves are bright green and just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes (if using broccoli, cook until almost crisp-tender).
• Stir broth mixture, then pour into wok and stir-fry until sauce is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
• Return mixture just to a boil, then pour over noodle cake.

Steps:

• Add noodles to a large pot of boiling water; cook 3 minutes. Drain; rinse under cold water until cool. Drain well. Spread on paper towels; let stand 10 minutes. In a large cast-iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add noodles in an even layer; cook until browned on bottom, 5 minutes. Flip; cook 4 minutes, adding 1 tablespoon oil if needed. Slide onto a paper towel-lined plate.
• Add 2 tablespoons oil to skillet, then ginger and scallion whites; cook 30 seconds. Add broccoli and carrots; cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water; cover and cook 3 minutes. Uncover; add bean sauce and cornstarch mixture. Simmer until sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar and corn; heat through. Serve over noodles, topped with scallion greens.

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup vegetable stock, liquid amino acids, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a cup. Whisk cornstarch and 1 tablespoon vegetable stock together in a separate cup until smooth.
• Heat peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat; add lima beans and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook and stir beans until partially warmed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add onions and celery, lower heat to medium, and cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are heated through and coated in oil, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour vegetable stock-liquid amino mixture over bean mixture and turn heat to high. Cover wok and cook over medium heat for 4 minutes. Stir cornstarch mixture into bean mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is thickened, about 1 minute. Serve with brown rice.

• Boil noodles as per package instructions. Drain and soak in cold water for about 2 mins to prevent them from cooking further. Drain and mix with 1 tbsp vegetable oil to prevent them from sticking. Set aside.
• In a small container, mix the sriracha sauce, ketchup, vinegar, and soy sauce. Set aside.
• In a wok or large frying pan, heat 2 tbsp oil to sizzling. Add ginger and garlic pastes. Stir fry for a minute then add the white part of the spring onions. Stir fry for another minute.
• Add the red and green bell pepper, carrots & stir fry until these veggies are partially cooked (about 2 minutes). Add the cabbage and stir fry for another minute.
• Add the sauce mixture. Mix well and then do a quick taste for salt and pepper. Add the drained noodles & mix until all is well combined. Add half of the green part of the spring onions (reserve half for garnishing) and stir fry for 2 minutes, until noodles are hot. Serve immediately with garnish of remaining spring onions.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the beans and carrots and cook for 1 minute. Drain and put in a bowl of iced water until cool, about 1 minute. Drain and set aside.
• Return the water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. Pat dry and set aside.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over high heat. Add the noodles, ginger and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes until the noodles are lightly browned. Add the mushrooms, beans, carrots, and water chestnuts and cook for 3 minutes. Add the broth, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and honey. Bring the mixture to a boil and stir until slightly reduced and thick, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Transfer the chow mein to a large bowl and garnish with the green onions before serving.

Steps:

• Prepare the noodles: Bring a large wok (or pot) of water to a boil.
• Meanwhile, prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauces, abalone sauce, sugar and boullion powder until everything is dissolved and evenly combined.
• Cook noodles for 1 minute, then transfer to a colander. Rinse the cooked noodles with very cold water until bouncy and totally cool. Drain thoroughly and transfer to a large sheet tray. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil to prevent sticking and toss to coat. Spread noodles in a single layer and set aside. Wipe the wok dry.
• Set the wok (or a large skillet) over high heat until lightly smoking. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat. Add the onions and bell peppers, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Let it cook undisturbed until slightly charred on one side, about 1 minute. Toss again. Add the bean sprouts and Chinese chives, and stir-fry until the Chinese chives are dark green, about 1 minute.
• Add the cooked, drained noodles to the wok and toss to combine. Keep cooking and stirring until the noodles are toasty and totally dry, about 2 minutes.
• Add the chow mein sauce. Using chopsticks, vigorously and quickly mix the noodles thoroughly until the sauce is equally distributed and the noodles are all the same shade. Plate and serve.

Steps:

• Place the noodles in a saucepan, cover with boiling water and cook according to the packet instructions. Drain and set aside.
• In a frying pan, saute the red onion, garlic and spring onions in a little olive oil over a medium heat for about 8 minutes until the onion softens.
• Add the mushrooms and continue to saute for another 4-5 minutes. Add the spinach and saute just long enough to wilt it. Add the cooked noodles and mix all the ingredients together.
• Finally, add the soy sauce and sesame oil and mix well. Season with a little salt if desired before serving.
