Make Chinese Food From Home - Lo Mein Recipe
If you often purchase Chinese food for dinner, consider making one of these delicious meals from home! Lo Mein is a Chinese dish that contains egg noodles, and I'd like to share my recipe for you to try that can feed 3-5 persons.
What tools you will need:
- Large pan or wok
- pot (for boiling)
- Mixing bowl
- measuring cups
- preferred utensils
Ingredients:
- Large egg noodles
- Chicken
- Red Pepper
- Green Pepper
- Garlic (minced optional)
- Chinese cooking wine
- Dark soy sauce
- Light or Regular soy sauce
- Sesame oil
- Corn Starch
- Sugar
- Olive oil (to saute)
- Green Onion (Garnish)
First, you will prep and put out all your ingredients. Cut the Chicken into small square pieces and vegetables to preferred liking. (You can also use seafood, steak, or pork instead of chicken) Now we are prepped, let's begin cooking!
How to cook Lo Mein in 5 steps:
- Start by boiling the noodles. While the noodles boil, put the veggies into the pan with olive oil on a slow setting and have it sit for a few minutes.
- With your mixing bowl, you will put 2 tbsp of corn starch and dark soy sauce. Then you will add 3tbsp of the light or regular soy sauce. Put 2 tsp of sesame oil, cooking wine, and sugar into the mix. Then you will take a spoon of choice and mix it well into a fine liquid paste.
- Place the chicken into the mixing bowl and either shake or message the sauce into the chicken. If you would like, you can do this again with the noodles and coat them.
- After coating the chicken, slightly increase the stove's temperature and cook the chicken. After the chicken is done, add in the noodles and lower the temp.
- Mix well and add green onion to garnish. Enjoy!
Jolene used two lists that both served their own purpose respectively. The first list was unordered and gave the information of ingredients needed. The second list was ordered and gave directions for the process of making the meal. Both lists were formatted correctly and consistently.
ReplyDeleteJolene used 2 types of list. 2 bulleted lists for things that you'll need to make Lo mein. One for the tools and one for the ingredients. The second type of list was a numbered list and it was a step by step process of how to cook Lo mein. Her lists served their purposes and were used correctly whenever they were implemented. She did a really good job with this post. I now am a professional Lo mein cook.
