Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
- 2 stalks celery sliced
- 1/2 head of cabbage shredded
- 2 scallions sliced (reserve some for garnish)
- 1 pack of chow mein or yakisoba noodles with seasoning packet
- 2 tbsp olive oil
For the Sauce
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp garlic paste
- 1 tsp ginger paste
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp white pepper
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, garlic paste, ginger paste, brown sugar, white pepper, and cornstarch.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, celery, and cabbage. Sauté until fragrant and tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add noodles and the seasoning packet. Pour in the sauce and toss everything together until well combined and evenly coated.
- Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until noodles are heated through and slightly crispy in some spots.
- Garnish with sliced scallions and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use high heat to stir-fry the vegetables for that slight char and crispness.
- Don’t overcook the noodles; they should be soft but still have a bit of bite.
- Make extra sauce to drizzle over your noodles or for dipping egg rolls!
