Veggie Lomein
  • 2 c Pasta/Noodles (cooked off in Chicken Broth)
  • 2 tb Sesame Oil
  • 3 ts minced Garlic
  • 1 ts Grated Ginger
  • 1 tb Rice Wine Vinegar
  • 2 tb Hoisin Sauce
  • 2 tb Soy Sauce
  • 2 c Veggies*

Beef & Broccoli
  • 1 lb thinly shaved Beef**
  • 2 tb Soy Sauce
  • 2 tb Oyster Sauce
  • 2 ts Rice Wine
  • 2 tb Sesame Oil
  • 1 tb Brown Sugar
  • 1 tb Minced Garlic
  • 1 ts Grated Ginger
  • 2 Stalks Green Onion
  • 2 c Broccoli
  • 2 tb Cornstarch + 4 tb Water
  • Green Onion Garnish

Instructions
  1. For your Rice, begin by gently heating up your Sesame Oil and softening your Garlic and Ginger.
  2. Toss in your cubed Chicken. Salt and pepper and cook until just opaque.
  3. Scoop in your rice drizzle over your Soy Sauce. Mix everything together.
  4. Scoot everything over to one side and softly scramble your eggs in your melted butter.
  5. Mix everything together again and tumble in your cooked veggies (or frozen). Mix/cook everything together until the veggies are done.
  6. For your Noodles, heat your Sesame Oil and drop in your Garlic and Ginger. Cook to soften.
  7. Slide in your noodles, drizzle over your Vinegar, Hoisin Sauce, and Soy Sauce and toss to coat.
  8. Mix in your Veggies and salt and pepper to taste cook until your veggies are done and garnish.
  9. For your Beef, in a large bowl combine it with your Soy Sauce, Oyster Sauce, Rice Wine, Sesame Oil, Brown Sugar, Garlic, Ginger, and Green Onions.
  10. Set aside to marinate for at least 1 hour.
  11. Heat up your large pan (no oil and large enough as to give the Beef lots of room so it doesn’t “steam”) and cook half way through. Toss in your Broccoli. Mix/cook until everything is ready. In a separate bowl, whisk together your Cornstarch and Water. Slowly pour into your pan and let it bubble and thicken. Mix well and garnish with more Green Onions.

Notes
*Veggies of your choice **Ribeye or Sirloin is nice but use what you have

Now, the big question I’m left with is, what’s for dessert?  =)

Here’s to Chinese food minus the MSG, minus the tip, minus the wait.

Love,

Your Squishy Monster ^.~
