Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 8 oz fresh pork, thinly sliced
  • 3 large eggs

Noodles

  • 8 oz lo mein noodles

Vegetables

  • 1 medium carrot, thinly sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced

Sauces & Oils

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Noodles: Cook lo mein noodles according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and toss with a little oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
  2. Cook the Pork: Heat vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add thinly sliced pork and cook for 4-5 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove pork from pan and set aside.
  3. Scramble the Eggs: Lightly whisk eggs and pour into the same pan. Gently scramble until just cooked but still moist. Remove eggs from pan and combine with the pork.
  4. Stir-Fry the Vegetables: Add more vegetable oil if needed. Sauté minced garlic and ginger until fragrant. Add sliced carrots, bell peppers, and green onions, stir-frying until tender-crisp.
  5. Combine Everything: Return pork and eggs to the pan with vegetables. Add cooked noodles, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and drizzle sesame oil. Toss thoroughly to combine and heat through, allowing noodles to soak up the sauce.
  6. Final Touches: Toss one last time, taste, and adjust seasoning with additional soy sauce or a pinch of sugar if desired. Serve hot, garnished as preferred.

Notes

  • Use high heat for stir-frying to keep vegetables crisp and flavors vibrant.
  • Prep all ingredients ahead to speed up cooking.
  • Do not overcook noodles to avoid mushiness.
  • Add eggs and pork back at the end to maintain moisture.
  • Adjust soy and oyster sauce amounts to control saltiness and sweetness.
