The Ramen Chow Mein My Dad's Made 100,000 Times

Ingredients

• 3 block Vite Ramen Naked Noods
• 1 piece celery
• 2 oz bean sprouts
• 0.5 red onion
• 1 oz yellow chives
• 1 oz carrot
• 2 oz king oyster mushroom
• 1 piece green onion
• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1.5 tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tbsp corn oil
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 2 tbsp water

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare noodles: We'll start by boiling about 6 cups of water in a pot (the amount is pretty flexible).

2. 2

   Prepare vegetables: We'll be washing and preparing several vegetables:

3. 3

   Create sauce: To create our sauce, we'll be mixing oyster sauce, sugar, water, light soy sauce, and dark soy sauce (gives it a darker color, slightly sweeter than light soy sauce).

4. 4

   Heat wok & oil: Heating the wok and oil sufficiently is very, very important for making chow mein and other stir fries. Especially for a carbon steel wok, this process helps ensure that the wok doesn't stick to the food.

5. 5

   Cook everything: Time to cook everything! This part is pretty straightforward but there are a few nuances with heat and timing that I'll point out as we go.

6. 6

   Taste & plate: Great chefs always try their creations throughout the process and adjust if necessary, so try it out and see if you're happy with it!
