Easy-peasy chow mein

I was going to make a recipe this week, but after checking it out, I figured I didn't need a recipe to tell me how to make a chow mein - making this shiet is in my blood! So I literally threw together this recipe myself and it turned out delicious! That's the funnest part about cooking and fashion - sometimes the most random circumstances end up in the best results.

• 1 red and 1 orange red bell pepper
• 1 pkg of pre cut stir fry beef, or 2 lean round steaks cut into strips
• 2 cups of crispy egg noodle
  
• 2-3 handfuls of baby spinach
• 1 clove garlic sliced
  
• 1 tsp ginger, sliced

Take beef and toss into a small bowl with the following marinade (I didn't measure the portions so try to use your instincts here):

• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 2 tsp 5 spice powder
• pepper and salt
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp corn starch
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 2 tsp fish sauce
  

Let meat sit for at least 15 minutes while you slice up the veggie and other ingredients. Pour 1 tbsp of cooking oil into wok and when you can feel heat coming up, toss in garlic and ginger. Cook for 30s, then add meat. Stir fry meat until browned, then remove from wok. Throw in noodles, add a bit of water to moisten and stir fry for 1-2 minutes. Add peppers and 1 tbsp of oyster sauce to lightly coat noodles. Cook while stirring for another minute. Add back in meat, cook for another minute. Turn off stove and throw in your spinach, letting the heat cook the spinach. Serve right away!


Check back in a couple days as I've also been working on another secret recipe, the results of which I will post about after it's complete!
