vegetable lo mein

Chinese noodle dish

Vegetable lo mein is a Chinese-American noodle dish featuring soft wheat noodles stir-fried with mixed vegetables like bok choy, carrots, mushrooms, and bean sprouts in a savory soy-based sauce.

It's a staple of takeout menus and differs from chow mein, which uses crispier noodles: I ordered vegetable lo mein and an egg roll.
