Rule #1: WASH UP!!!
Tossing in the "little trees."
Eating the yellow bell pepper!
Cooking up the noodles.
Making a joyful noise in the kitchen!! ;)
Straight outta the garden ya'll!!
Adding Secret Ingredient #1
Mincing the garlic.
Adding Secret Ingredient #2!
Loving what they made, yet not eating enough to earn a dessert. I know, I know....mean ole mama!!
Ingredients
8 ounces thin spaghetti, broken in half
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil (I used 2)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 cups chopped broccoli (I also added 1 yellow bell pepper)
1 1/2 cups sliced onion
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger (COMPLETELY OMITTED! Ginger offends me.)
4 garlic cloves, minced (6 garlic cloves, minced!!)
12 ounces sirloin tips, cut crosswise into thin strips
3 tablespoons beef broth
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar (3 tablespoons of brown sugar!!)
1 tablespoon oyster sauce (COMPLETELY OMITTED!! Oysters are even MORE offending!)
Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli and onion and cook, stirring often, for 3 minutes. Add Secret Ingredient #1 (2 teaspoons of Tony Cachere's!!) and garlic and continue stirring while the mixture cooks for another 30 seconds. Add the sirloin and cook it, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until it is no longer pink.
In a small bowl, mix the broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, and Secret Ingredient #2 (a pinch of red pepper flakes!) Add the soy sauce mixture and the pasta to the skillet and continue cooking, stirring often, for 1 to 2 minutes or until everything is heated through. Serve the lo mein hot.
