How to Make Garlic Broccoli Lo Mein

To start, chop broccoli, carrots and garlic. Set those aside for later. Next, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add broccoli and carrots. Cook 5 minutes.

Then, add lo mein noodles to pot and cook 3-5 minutes or until tender. It cooks quickly so keep a close eye on it. While cooking the vegetables and noodles, in a small mixing bowl combine soy sauce, ginger, 1/4 cup sesame oil and cornstarch. Whisk to combine.

Once lo mein is tender pour into a strainer and drizzle lightly with sesame oil to keep from sticking together. Return the empty pot to the stove and add a tsp of sesame oil and garlic. Cook 3 minutes.

Add the sauce mixture to the pot and stir to cook until it thickens, about 2 minutes. Remove pot from the heat and add lo mein and vegetables back to the pot. Toss to coat with sauce. Serve immediately.
