INGREDIENTS: (Per Serving)
| Dry chow mein noodles | 50 gram |
| Shredded cabbage | 1/2 cup |
| Sliced carrots | 1/4 cup |
| Sliced bell peppers | 1/4 cup |
| Sliced mushrooms | 1/4 cup |
| Green onion (chopped) | 1 |
| Minced garlic | 1/2 tsp |
| Minced fresh ginger | 1/2 tsp |
| Low-sodium soy sauce | 1 tbsp |
| Hoisin sauce | 1 tsp |
| Rice vinegar | 1 tsp |
| Sesame seeds | 1/4 tsp |
| Vegetable broth | 1/4 cup |
METHOD:
-
Cook the Noodles: Boil the chow mein noodles according to package instructions (about 3–5 minutes). Drain, rinse with cold water to prevent sticking, and set aside.
-
Prep the Veggies: While the noodles cook, slice the cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, mushrooms, and green onion. Mince the garlic and ginger for maximum flavor.
-
Cook the Veggies: In a non-stick skillet or wok, heat 2 tbsp of vegetable broth over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger, and white parts of the green onion. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 4–5 minutes, adding more broth (1 tbsp at a time) if needed to prevent sticking, until the veggies are tender-crisp.
-
Add the Sauce and Noodles: Stir in the soy sauce, hoisin sauce (if using), and rice vinegar. Toss in the cooked noodles and mix well to coat everything evenly. Cook for 1–2 minutes until heated through.
-
Serve: Transfer to a plate, sprinkle with sesame seeds and the green parts of the green onion, and enjoy immediately. Pair with a side of steamed edamame for a complete meal.
