10 ingredients, 20 minutes, and a delicious recipe! This is my best preforming recipe on YouTube! Its so easy to make tasty chow mein at home! You only need one pan for this dish!
First in your skillet, boil some water and cook your noodles. I stand by using Yakisoba noodles. I find that it is the easiest and the closet noodle to Panda Express. You can use ramen, I just find it to be a little different. Once your noodles are cooked, set aside.
In the same skillet, add a little oil and then your garlic, onion, cabbage, and celery. Start to sauté this down. Add 1 tbsp of sugar. Once the vegetables are cooked down, add your dark soy sauce, and oyster sauce. Make it all nice and combined. I highly recommend using the dark soy sauce. It will give you that same rich color. You can find this at your local Asian market. You can use regular soy, but I find that the consistency, richness, and color is just not quite the same.
Lastly, toss in your cooked noodles. If you want to add a little more oyster sauce or soy, do so! Stir this all together and enjoy!

Thanks for the sensible critique. Me and my neighbor were just preparing to do some research about this. We got a grab a book from our area library but I think I learned more from this post. I’m very glad to see such great info being shared freely out there.
I have recommended your blog to some colleagues, it’s great.
Thank you so much!
Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
We use Word Press!
loved the video but the noodles came out super salty. i used low sodium soy sauce and still the salt in the noodles was too much. Anything i did wrong or where can i improve?
Salt is preference! If you find it a little too salty, the I suggest using a dried noodle that is not packaged in ramen. You can find a number of noodles that are just the noodle minus the seasoning. That should help!
