Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound flank steak (cut in thin strips against the grain)
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (low sodium)
  • 1 teaspoon peanut oil
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)
  • 2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
  • 4 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • ½ teaspoon white pepper (ground)
  • 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 pound lo mein noodles (or ramen noodles or any other Asian style noodles)
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil (divided)
  • 1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
  • 2 cup Napa cabbage (shredded, or regular cabbage)
  • 1 medium carrot (julienned)
  • 1 medium red bell pepper (julienned)
  • 1 cup snow peas
  • 1 cup bean sprouts
  • 3 green onions (cut into 2 inch pieces)


Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix soy sauce, cornstarch, peanut oil, and baking soda. Add sliced beef and marinate for 10 minutes.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a large wok over medium-high heat until hot. Cook the beef for 3 to 4 minutes until browned and transfer to a plate.
  5. In the same wok, add the remaining tablespoon of peanut oil. Stir-fry mushrooms, cabbage, carrots, and red bell pepper for about 2 minutes.
  6. Add snow peas and bean sprouts to the wok with the cooked beef and noodles. Pour the prepared lo mein sauce over everything and toss to combine, cooking for an additional minute.
  7. Top with sliced green onions and serve with Sriracha and a side of homemade egg rolls.

Notes

Feel free to add more vegetables like broccoli or snap peas based on your preference.
Ensure the beef is cut against the grain for tenderness.
For extra flavor, consider adding garlic or ginger to the stir-fry.
