Ingredients
- Lo Mein noodles - watch the video to see (Chinese egg noodles)
- water - watch the video to see (for boiling)
- cold water - watch the video to see (for cooling down if taking a break before stir-frying)
Instructions
- Boil the noodles: Stir the Lo Mein noodles in boiling water to prevent them from sticking to the pot. Once the water returns to a boil or after about 90 seconds, turn the heat to low.
- Test the doneness: Test the noodles for doneness, similar to checking pasta. The noodles should be fully cooked with no white dots in the center.
- Drain and cool: Turn off the heat and drain the noodles. If taking a break before stir-frying, cool the noodles down with some cold water to stop them from cooking further in the residual heat.
