I went into a bit of an Asian stir fry frenzy, you see.
…while simultaneously watching Breaking Bad to tide me over ’til Sundays The Walking Dead!

- 2 ts Minced Garlic
- 1 ts Grated Ginger
- ¼ c Soy Sauce
- 2 Eggs
- 2 tb Butter
- 2 c Veggies*
- Sesame Seed or Green Onion Garnish
Veggie Lomein
- 2 c Pasta/Noodles (cooked off in Chicken Broth)
- 2 tb Sesame Oil
- 3 ts minced Garlic
- 1 ts Grated Ginger
- 1 tb Rice Wine Vinegar
- 2 tb Hoisin Sauce
- 2 tb Soy Sauce
- 2 c Veggies*
- Nuts or Green Onion Garnish
Beef & Broccoli
- 1 lb thinly shaved Beef**
- 2 tb Soy Sauce
- 2 tb Oyster Sauce
- 2 ts Rice Wine
- 2 tb Sesame Oil
- 1 tb Brown Sugar
- 1 tb Minced Garlic
- 1 ts Grated Ginger
- 2 Stalks Green Onion
- 2 c Broccoli
- 2 tb Cornstarch + 4 tb Water
- Green Onion Garnish
Instructions
- For your Rice, begin by gently heating up your Sesame Oil and softening your Garlic and Ginger.
- Toss in your cubed Chicken. Salt and pepper and cook until just opaque.
- Scoop in your rice drizzle over your Soy Sauce. Mix everything together.
- Scoot everything over to one side and softly scramble your eggs in your melted butter.
- Mix everything together again and tumble in your cooked veggies (or frozen). Mix/cook everything together until the veggies are done.
- For your Noodles, heat your Sesame Oil and drop in your Garlic and Ginger. Cook to soften.
- Slide in your noodles, drizzle over your Vinegar, Hoisin Sauce, and Soy Sauce and toss to coat.
- Mix in your Veggies and salt and pepper to taste cook until your veggies are done and garnish.
- For your Beef, in a large bowl combine it with your Soy Sauce, Oyster Sauce, Rice Wine, Sesame Oil, Brown Sugar, Garlic, Ginger, and Green Onions.
- Set aside to marinate for at least 1 hour.
- Heat up your large pan (no oil and large enough as to give the Beef lots of room so it doesn’t “steam”) and cook half way through. Toss in your Broccoli. Mix/cook until everything is ready. In a separate bowl, whisk together your Cornstarch and Water. Slowly pour into your pan and let it bubble and thicken. Mix well and garnish with more Green Onions.
Notes
*Veggies of your choice
**Ribeye or Sirloin is nice but use what you have
Now, the big question I’m left with is, what’s for dessert? =)
Here’s to Chinese food minus the MSG, minus the tip, minus the wait.
Love,

What I didn’t realize was how much better Asian food could be than what my experience of it was. A lot of Chinese cuisine in America is actually nothing like the traditional style. It is much too greasy, and dominated by a simple array of flavors that doesn’t really capture the complexity of Asian cooking.^

Whata great idea to make your own Chinese takeout. All I need s someone else to cook it ha ha. So what did you of the new Walking Dead?
It wasn’t as explosive as I’d hoped but I’m still a die hard fan either way.
So good and so needed! I have been craving take-out, but this looks even better (and is healthier too!) Thank you for sharing another delectable recipe and post. This whetted my appetite for dinner and dessert! I hope you have a love-filled week, my friend!
Hope you and the lil bun in the oven are well =)

I am addicted to Asian food. I suck at making it so spend too much money at takeouts. If you need dessert, head over my way, I have plenty. Baking frenzy at my house last few days.
