Prepare vegetables and aromatics

Prepare the vegetables by cutting the carrots, red bell pepper, shiitake mushrooms, and snow peas as listed; mince the garlic and ginger and keep everything near the stove.

1 Cup carrot
1 Cup bell pepper
1 1/2 Cup shiitake mushrooms
1 Cup snow peas
3 Count garlic
1 Tablespoon ginger
2
Boil and drain noodles
Large pot

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, cook the lo mein noodles until just tender, then reserve 1/4 cup noodle cooking water and drain well.

Drain the noodles carefully to avoid burns from boiling water and steam.

12 Ounce lo mein noodles

Mix sauce
Small mixing bowl

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, toasted sesame oil, and reserved noodle cooking water until smooth and glossy.

2 Tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 Tablespoon sesame oil
4
Stir-fry vegetables
Wok or large skillet

Heat the canola oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then stir-fry the broccoli, carrots, bell pepper, shiitake mushrooms, and snow peas for 3 to 5 minutes until crisp-tender.

Use caution when adding vegetables to hot oil, as moisture can cause splattering.

Keep the wok or skillet handle turned inward to prevent accidental bumps.

2 Tablespoon canola oil
2 Cup broccoli
1 Cup carrot
1 Cup bell pepper
1 1/2 Cup shiitake mushrooms
1 Cup snow peas

Stir-fry aromatics
