  2. 2

    Cook noodles in a pot of boiling water until just tender, 3–4 minutes. Drain and toss with oil to prevent sticking.

  4. 4

    Add garlic and ginger, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant and lightly golden.

  5. 5

    Toss in carrots, bell peppers, and snap peas, stir-frying for about 2 minutes until bright and crisp-tender.

  6. 6

    In a small bowl, whisk soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and cornstarch slurry until smooth.

  7. 7

    Add the noodles and sauce to the wok, tossing gently for 1–2 minutes until sauce thickens.

  8. 8

    Sprinkle green onions over the lo mein, give a final toss, then plate and garnish with sesame seeds.
