- Toasting /sweating the vegetables step by step(excluding the onions) Now, in a wok, with zero oil, we will one by one lightly toast the veggies until they start sweating meaning some water content comes out of the veggies. Toss In the sprouts or the cabbage into the wok and toast them for about 2-3 mins until you see some water content. Take them out and then in the same hot wok add in your next vegetable that is the green part of the onions. Again toasting them until they are sweaty.
- Adding oil into the hot wok. Now add about 1-2 Tbsp of oil and swirl it into the wok over high flame. Then add in the onions. After they’re translucent take them out and in the same oil, add the diced white part of the spring onions over medium flame until they are softened and then take them out too.
- Adding the noodles in the remaining onion oil. Fry noodles over medium flame for about 15-30 seconds then add in onions and stir them. After that add in the sauce which was prepared earlier and move your noodles using tongs so that they absorb the sauce. Then after a minute or two add in the remaining veggies and mix them. Stir the noodles so that the sauce reduces and is absorbed. Once the sauce is thickened a bit and is not liquid-y, your Cantonese chow mein is ready! #refer to Umbreen Musa
