Yvonne made a Chinese Fried Noodles (Chow Mien) in the Caring Place Community Kitchen due to the popularity of this dish in another community kitchen which I did not attend.
It looked like a daunting task to make this noodle because Yvonne used a lot of ingredients. But, when making it at home, you can simplify the recipe by using your favourite meat or seafood and vegetables.
Yvonne served the Chow Mien in the wok itself because we could’nt find a platter big enough to hold the noodles.
Ingredients
- 2 packets of Chinese instant noodles
- 2 sweet peppers, sliced
- 2 onions, sliced
- 2 inches of ginger, sliced
