SAUCE:

4 tablespoon dark soy sauce (sub regular soy sauce if needed) (Affiliate link)
2 tablespoon light soy sauce (sub regular soy sauce if needed) (Affiliate link)
6 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoon sugar
2 clove of garlic, grated (optional)

LO MEIN:

8–12 ounces uncooked ramen noodles (Affiliate link)

2 tablespoon sesame oil
6 green onions, chopped (separate green parts from white parts – you’ll use both separately)
320–480 grams julienne cut or chopped vegetables like carrots, red peppers, cabbage, bok choy, mushrooms, or broccoli
2–4 tablespoons mirin

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Sauce: Shake all the sauce ingredients together in a jar.
2. Noodles: Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
3. Lo Mein: Heat the sesame oil in a large wok or skillet. Add the green onions (white parts) and vegetables to the hot pan. Stir fry
until fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the mirin to loosen the browned bits up off the bottom of the pan. Add the cooked
noodles and about half of the sauce – toss around in the hot pan to combine. Add more sauce if needed (I usually gauge the
amount of sauce I want by the color of the noodles – you want a medium brown color, not too light, not too dark). Serve topped
with remaining green onions!

NOTE S
If you want to add a protein, stir fry it first, before the vegetables, then remove from heat while you cook the vegetables. Add back
into the pan at the end with the noodles.
