Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If the sour flavor is unfamiliar or overwhelming, you can omit the vinegar from the sauce mix and keep only the sweet and savory base; it will still be delicious.
  • There is no fixed rule for the vegetables in chow mein; leftover veggies like cabbage or carrots in your fridge work great for using them up.
  • Adding all the starch slurry at once can cause clumping, so keep the heat high and add it little by little to achieve your preferred consistency and avoid failure.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to experience a unique combination of crispy fried noodles and moist sauce beyond regular stir-fried noodles.
  • Those looking for an unconventional American/Hong Kong fusion Chinese-Asian dish to enjoy at home.
  • Those who want to transform leftover vegetables and meat in the fridge into an impressive, upgraded dish.
