Vegetable Lo Mein
Vegetable Lo Mein combines cooked lo mein noodles with a mix of snow peas, carrots, baby bok choy, garlic, ginger, and green onions, stir-fried and coated in a savory sauce made from soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. The vegetables remain tender-crisp, and the sauce clings evenly to the noodles. This dish can be served hot as a main or side dish, providing a balanced mix of textures and a mildly sweet, savory flavor.
