Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, to a large pot, add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Meanwhile, core, then thinly slice peppers.
  • Juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Roughly chop spinach. (TIP: Place spinach in a bowl, then roughly chop using a pair of kitchen shears or scissors!)
  • To a small bowl, add oyster sauce, ginger-garlic puree, half the stock powder, lime juice, 1/4 cup (1/3 cup) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Stir to combine. (NOTE: This is your sauce mixture!)

  • To the boiling water, add chow mein noodles. Cook for 1-2 min, uncovered, until tender.
  • Drain noodles, then rinse under warm water.
  • Return noodles to the same pot, off heat. Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Sprinkle half the Cumin-Turmeric Spice Blend and remaining stock powder over top, then gently toss to coat.
  • Using a pair of scissors, make a few cuts in the pot to cut up noodles.
  • Set aside.
