Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Noodles

    In a large pot of boiling water, cook the lo mein noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the noodles are cooking, wash and slice the bell pepper, julienne the carrots, and rinse the snow peas. Chop the green onions, separating the white and green parts.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Stir-Fry the Vegetables

    In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the white parts of the green onions, bell pepper, carrots, and snow peas. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  2. 4

    Add the Garlic and Ginger

    Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 5

    Combine Noodles and Sauce

    Add the cooked lo mein noodles to the skillet along with soy sauce, sesame oil, and sugar. Toss everything together, making sure the noodles and vegetables are well coated with the sauce.

  4. 6

    Final Touches

    Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate and Garnish

    Transfer the lo mein to serving dishes and top with the green parts of the chopped green onions. Optionally, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chili flakes to taste.
