Lo Mein

February 7, 2011

For dinner last night, Alex decided to make some lo mein with ramen noodles.  I was content with a roasted tomato salad and let him have at it.  I was pleasantly surprised when he finished making it; aside from being rather colorless from a lack of extra veggies, it looked rather tasty.  It was.

He added some baby bellas..yum yum.

Lo Mein
1 package ramen noodles, without seasoning
1 egg
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup onion, chopped
baby bella mushrooms, sliced (Alex used 3)
any other veggies you’d like
3 T olive oil (although Alex says you should use sesame, which we did not have)
2 T soy sauce
salt & pepper, to taste

Soak the ramen noodles in warm water to soften slightly.  Fry up the egg with a little bit of soy sauce in oil, scrambling while frying.  Add in the veggies and about 1 T of each oil and soy sauce and cook until softened.  Add in the softened noodles and cook until fully softened and well mixed.  Add the remaining oil and soy sauce, cook until well absorbed.  Season with salt and pepper and serve hot.
