Notes

Prepare your veggies ahead, so they are ready to go before start stir-frying them: This dish is so quick to make! Have all the vegetables ready to go into the wok to make sure you don't burn them between steps.

Ensure your wok is hot before starting cooking: It will ensure that the veggies will cook faster and won't stick to the bottom of your pan.

Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be crispy, so make sure you stir fry them until they are tender but not so soft.

Feel free to add chili sauce to your taste if you love spicy food: If you are a fan of spicy food, please adjust your dish's spiciness by adding some drops of chili sauce while adding the Lo Mein sauce into the wok.
