Vegetable Table
10 ounces lo mein noodles, fresh or dry
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 red pepper, sliced
1 carrot, grated
1 small head napa cabbage, chopped
To garnish:
Fresh scallion, chopped
Sesame seeds
Wasabi edamame
1 Combine the sauce ingredients: In a small bowl, stir together soy sauce, hot water, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil.
2 Cook the lo mein noodles: Fill a large pot with water and set it over medium heat. Add the salt and bring the water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook until tender, usually around 4 minutes, but check the package directions for the noodles you are using.
Drain the noodles, transfer to a bowl, and toss with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Cook the vegetables: Set a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add olive oil along with the sliced mushrooms, and stir fry for 2-3 minutes until the mushrooms lose their water and start to brown slightly. Then add the red pepper, carrot, and cabbage. Continue to cook for about 3 minutes, stirring regularly until the vegetables are wilted.
