Ingredients

• 8 oz Lo mein noodles
• 12 oz Beef sirloin or flank steak
• 5 tbsp Soy sauce
• 3 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp Sesame oil
• 2 tsp Cornstarch
• 1 tsp Sugar
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 tsp Ginger (fresh, grated)
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 3 cups Green cabbage
• 1 large Carrot (julienned)
• 3 Green onions
• 0.5 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cook the lo mein noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Thinly slice the beef against the grain into bite-sized strips. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the beef to the mixture and let it marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 3

In a separate small bowl, combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves and set the sauce aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until just cooked through. Remove from the wok and set aside.

Step 5

Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Stir-fry the garlic, ginger, and onion for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the cabbage and carrot to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften slightly but remain crisp.

Step 7

Return the cooked beef to the wok, along with the cooked noodles. Pour the sauce over the mixture and toss to coat everything evenly.

Step 8

Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat everything through and allow the flavors to combine.

Step 9

Garnish with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
