Method

  1. 1 Boil the egg noodles for 2 minutes, then rinse with cold water and mix in a tablespoon of sesame oil to prevent them from sticking together.
  2. 2 Marinate the shredded pork tenderloin with soy sauce, cornstarch, and ginger for 10 minutes.
  3. 3 Heat the pan until it smokes, then stir-fry the meat for 2 minutes, and set it aside.
  4. 4 Sauté the Chinese broccoli and bean sprouts for 90 seconds, then add the noodles and toss them in by tossing the pan instead of using a spoon to prevent the noodles from breaking.
  5. 5 Pour the oyster sauce and soy sauce mixture along the side of the pan, stir for 1 minute, then sprinkle with chopped green onions; lo mein is soft stir-fried noodles, so the noodles should be glossy and not burnt at the edges.
