Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce. 
  • To a large pot, add 10 cups hot water and 2 tsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Thinly slice celery crosswise.
  • Thinly slice green onions.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Peel, then mince or grate 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) ginger. (NOTE: Add more ginger if you like it tangy!)
Stir-fry veggies
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then celery. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften.
  • Add peppers. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender-crisp.
  • Remove from heat. Transfer veggies to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
Cook beef
3
  • Meanwhile, reheat the same pan (from step 2) over medium-high.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef. 
  • Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Sprinkle 2 tsp (4 tsp) sugar over top. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until beef is golden.
Make sauce
4
  • To the pan with beef, add Gravy Spice Blend, garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until aromatics are fragrant and beef is coated.
  • Add 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water, vegetarian oyster sauce and half the chili-garlic sauce. Bring to a simmer.
  • Once simmering, cook for 1-3 min, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly.
  • Remove from heat, then add veggies. Season with pepper, then stir to combine.
Cook chow mein noodles
5
  • Meanwhile, add chow mein noodles to the boiling water. Cook uncovered for 1-2 min, until tender. Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) noodle cooking water. 
  • Drain noodles, then rinse under warm water. Return noodles to the same pot. Using a pair of scissors, cut up noodles in the pot.
  • Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil and half the green onions, then toss to combine.
  • Cover to keep warm.
Finish and serve
6
  • To the pot with chow mein, add beef, veggies, sauce and reserved noodle cooking water.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add more water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
  • Divide chili-garlic beef noodles and any remaining sauce in the pot between plates.
  • Sprinkle with crispy shallots and remaining green onions.
  • Drizzle remaining chili-garlic sauce over top.
