I made a vegetarian variant of this recipe with king oyster mushrooms and it was fabulous. It’s the perfect weekday meal when you come home from work tired and hungry, and just want something simple but satisfying. I didn’t have baby bok choy at home, so I used Chinese (Napa) cabbage. It was still great. I love the xian la fen seasoning and will be using it regularly now. Thanks!!
Great video, Mandy! I have your wok and I Love It! My husband and I reserve Sundays for our “Better than Takeout” meals, since we don’t eat out anymore, our town doesn’t have any good reasonably priced Chinese restaurants. He always raves about how good the house smells when I cook with the wok. It’s so easy too! Just follow Mandy’s recipes. I have Mandy’s chopsticks too, but they are too beautiful to cook with!☺️
Mandy, I so appreciate your videos and how thorough you are in instruction. I watch other cooking videos and it seems like they give just enough instruction so that the viewer is interested but not enough that we can recreate what they cooked. I guess they don’t want to put themselves out o business🤷🏽♀️? But you, teach in a way that I know you want your viewers to succeed. And, I DO! Every single time with your recipes!
I actually made this the day you posted it to Patreon. Came out awesome as your recipes always do. I did double the recipe and cooked off the components separately and then incorporated them back into the noodles so I could get a good sear on them. I do have a large wok and a pretty strong gas stove that I bought with wok cooking in mind. I used fresh noodles, no need to boil first. I live up here in the Seattle area and we have access to a great variety all types of Asian products. Imported and locally produced. This will be going into my regular rotation.
You have such a beautiful sprit, you have a great uplifting way of presenting yourself, you always make my day when I watch your videos. Thank you for all you do.
I have made many of your recipes! I can't wait to try this one. I have pork chops in my freezer, left from another meal. Just the right amount! Perfect! I have a carbon steel wok! With patience at the beginning, it is now perfectly non-stick. You Tube helped! Thank You. I love your channel. Marty from New York. Yes, I have my favorite places in Chinatown!
This spice blend is outstanding, the tangerine peel gives the dish sensational aroma. I recommend to not skip it while making the blend. I just bought a tagerine, washed it and dried the peel in the sun. As simple as that!
Mandy, I made this recipe exactly as presented and it was outstanding. Pre-dressing the cooked al dente noodles was a game changer. And the Xian La Fen seasoning blend to finish made this dish so unique. As with all your recipes, this one’s a keeper, too. Thank you so much for your most excellent channel. I learn something new with every video you post.
Mandy, I bought your wok and use it every day. I’m obsessed with your videos and now cook at least 4 meals a week using your recipes. I cook just for myself so I adjust the portions accordingly. I can’t wait to these noodles next.
Mince meat oyster dry mushrooms shitake & diced big onion, chopped garlic sauce also very delicious. Noodles just blanc cook, put in plate, blanc bok choy, dash of white pepper powder, fried Shallots or fried garlic and blanc bean sprout. Like spegethi sauce for noodles.
awesome wok it’s so well designed. gets hot asf and it’s a breeze to clean with your instructions. food came out great. this looks dank i cant wait to try it
Another new noodle recipe! I've made so many of yours and they are all fabulous. Thank you for sharing your food and culture with us. We are blessed by your channel!
I just got your wok and this was the first thing I made, twice in a week! It's so good! I want that powder on everything 🤤 The wok performs incredibly well and it's so beautiful, I'm extremely happy with it
I'm always happy to learn subtle techniques like not rinsing the noodles and seasoning before stir frying. Hopefully these details will help me improve.
Mandy, thank you for the simple replacement powder. I don'[t need something as spicy as the original. On top of everything else, you are a very thoughtful person. I am sure making these videos is not as easy as it looks.
Hello Mandy - this recipe was the inspiration for me to purchase your Souped Up Recipes wok! It arrived today and looking forward to using it to make this, and many more. Appreciate you!
Thank you so much for all your videos I love them. My fiance is allergic to fish so took awhile with some recipes to get it right with hosin sauce or a vegan oyster but getting them down now please keep up the good work.
So interesting Mandy. Love watching your presentations. It let's me know that I still need to add some more items to my pantry : ). Always look forward to seeing you on your next educational presentation. 👍👍
Thank you so much, I got given this seasoning powder in a restaurant to accompany a pork hock and they guy said what it was but I wrote it down wrong, stoked, thank you!,
You are the best, Mandy. I love your videos. Is pork lard something that can be bought or do you need to render it yourself? I have lived in Shanghai back in 1999. I found their food to generally be sweet compared to other Chinese cuisines but this is definitely not a sweet dish.
I made this tonight and it was delicious! I made a mistake with the spice powder by adding white pepper corns instead of Szechuan. It didn't hurt it at all. I added the Szechuan to the spice mix for the 2nd batch. So if you don't have Szechuan pepper corns, you can still make a great meal. I used your homemade Kitchenaid noodle recipe, too. So so so good! Thank you!
Mandy! This is super random but I'd highly suggest you start including a photo of your face in the thumbnail next to the photo of your recipes! It seems to help a lot of chefs on here go viral. I want to see you blow up even more - thanks again for you chive box recipe btw! A new favourite I didn't know even existed!
My main concern about getting a wok is that we have a convection stove. I don’t know if that can even get hot enough to season my wok when i get it. Also finding pork fat in Finland is akin to finding a million euros sadly
Same with me. Im going to research and find a portable single burner gas stove that I can pull out and put on my counter when I need it such as with a wok. At the end of video, I notice a portable stove burner on the counter. I don’t know if it’s gas. Not sure if there’s an electric version out there that gets hot enough….if so, that would be ideal. My electric stove does not get hot enough.
The most important thing is that you have a flat bottom in the middle otherwise you won't be able to transfer heat to the wok effectively from an electric stove
I have convection cooktop and as long as this wok will work on it (magnet sticks?), you can stir fry on convection. Heat won't rise up the sides like it does with gas, but convection gets woks very hot and is also very responsive. I love my convection cook top!
I thought Shanghai didn't rely on the "mala" flavours. I guess learning new things is a part of life. My impression was more on the sweet and sour side of Hu cuisine. Aaah, yes! MSG! I love that stuff. Harmless umami magic powder. pssssst! Let's call it seaweed crystals to not anger the "anti-msg police who eat msg without thinking they do".

I've tried many of your Chow Mein and Lo Mein recipes and they all came out delicious! Can't wait to try this one out
I've been subscribed for years. I watch your videos several times each because I want to get it right. I've never had one of your dishes come out bad.
The best and most delicious 10 minutes of my day! Thank you.

Can’t wait to try this. I always add to much oil and it comes out greasy. I will be sure to use all your helpful tips next time I make it. Thank you 🙏
I just got your wok and this was the first thing I made, twice in a week! It's so good! I want that powder on everything 🤤
The wok performs incredibly well and it's so beautiful, I'm extremely happy with it
LOVE your recipes, could you please add written out names of your Chinese ingredients eg the spice powder you made? THANK you!
I'm always happy to learn subtle techniques like not rinsing the noodles and seasoning before stir frying. Hopefully these details will help me improve.
I love your videos you inspired me to use the wok! So I went out all the way to mom’s house to take hers. I love it! 💕
Omg this looks sooooo good! Can't wait to try this!
Mandy, thank you for the simple replacement powder. I don'[t need something as spicy as the original. On top of everything else, you are a very thoughtful person. I am sure making these videos is not as easy as it looks.
Hello Mandy - this recipe was the inspiration for me to purchase your Souped Up Recipes wok! It arrived today and looking forward to using it to make this, and many more. Appreciate you!

Thank you so much, I got given this seasoning powder in a restaurant to accompany a pork hock and they guy said what it was but I wrote it down wrong, stoked, thank you!,
Great recipe, as always, Mandy. And, great technique tips and rationale. I may try it with soba noodles and make Shanghai Yakisoba, lol.
I love "Chow Mein" I always do it only with vegetables. But I'm going to test that. Especially because of the seasoning mixture.
Absolutely love chowmein, and this one is definitely going on my to do recipe. Thank you 😊
Thank you for another good chow mein recipe 👍🏻
looks delicious.
Love your videos!
Looking at this film reminds me of Habachi Grill noodles Japanese style 😋 🤔 😍 Wish I was their, to enjoy the beautiful night and great dish.!
I like the recipe very much😋😊
Hi Mandy, in regard to your carbon steel wok, do you have any smaller sizes? Cheers.
You are the best, Mandy. I love your videos. Is pork lard something that can be bought or do you need to render it yourself?
I have lived in Shanghai back in 1999. I found their food to generally be sweet compared to other Chinese cuisines but this is definitely not a sweet dish.
Very delicious. However I live in France and I can rarely buy paksoi. Which vegetable can I best replace it with?
Delicious 😋
Beautiful 🥰, yummies 🤩
so good!
hello, we love your recipes. what state are you living in, yo seem to relocate often with many different kitchens.
Beautiful as always 😎👌🏻
I made this tonight and it was delicious! I made a mistake with the spice powder by adding white pepper corns instead of Szechuan. It didn't hurt it at all.

Seems yummy. Did you used pork chops? Thanks Mandy.
YUMMMMM MANDY, LOOOOOOOVE YOUR VIDEOS 😊😊😊😊
I love this wok 🥰

Very good
Hi Mandy, I have philips pasta maker, and I want make lo mein noodles is it the same or do I need to use Kitchen Aid to make it
Fried garlic oil or shallot oil also ideal too. Lard oil is traditional.
Mindi, MSG gives me a hangover. Thanks for the alternative.
Thanks
Will you please mention brand and power of the portable stove you are using.
明天我会试一下，谢谢你。
今天我做上海肉丝炒面， 特别好吃 👍
i wish the chinese places near me would actually make their food half as good as you do
Can you put a link below doe this spice blender please?
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum!
Delicious
Looks awesome :)
Why MSG or the chicken bouillon? Are these healthy?
thanks again!! :)
hello I have a bottle of abalone sauce like a ketchup - could you show me how to use it in a recipe please? x
What brand name and type of burner do you use for the wok

@@kingtutt61 yeah that's a portable gas stove she uses, I think she uses it for nearly all her TH-cam video tutorials

I love that
When is your cookbook coming out?
Nice video
Oh wear did you get the cute fox on your counter?
Oh yeah this is my type of dish, excluding the pork lard 😮 going in my to cook list 💜 love your recipes Mandy
That looks bigger than the 12 inch one linked in the description. Do you have a 14 inch wok?
I don't have 14 inch wok. Onle have the 12.5 inch wok - curatedkitchenware.com/products/carbon-steel-wok-with-flat-bottom
Thank you for your support.
I can eat 5 plates in 5 minutes of this warm noodle recipe with lots of spicy hot peppers 🌶 😇
