Tips for Making Perfect Beef and Broccoli Lomein

  • Use High Heat: Stir-fry the ingredients on high heat to achieve that classic wok flavor and to prevent the noodles from becoming soggy.
  • Prep Ahead: Prepare all your ingredients before starting to cook. This dish comes together quickly, so having everything ready will make the process smoother.
  • Marinate the Beef: Marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes to infuse it with flavor and tenderize the meat.

    Can fish sauce substitute for the oyster sauce? Sons and husband are allergic to shellfish/shellfish-like creatures. Trying to find a good substitute and the vegan oyster options contain mushrooms which my one son is allergic to. I can’t win! lol

    Another one for the books. My 8 yr old not only asked for seconds but he always wanted it for lunch. I’ve never eaten this at a Chinese restaurant. Turn out really good

    Wow! As a foodie thatโ€™s been cooking more at home this was amazing! I used skirt steak instead of flank and had to sub the rice vinegar for apple cider vinegar and it was SO good still. Definitely a new one for our rotation.
