Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces lo mein noodles
- 2 teaspoon sesame oil + extra (if needed)
- 6 cloves of garlic (peeled and roughly chopped)
- 6 heads broccoli (cut into florets)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 avocados (pitted and cubed)
- Cashews (for serving)
- Scallions (chopped, for serving)
- Tamari (for serving)
Instructions
- Boil the noodles according to package directions, then drain and set aside.
- Heat 2 teaspoons sesame oil in a large skillet (with a lid) over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until garlic begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook, uncovered, for another 3-4 minutes until the bottom of the broccoli browns. Don’t stir during this part (it needs to sit long enough to char).
- Once your broccoli is looking charred, add 1 tablespoon soy sauce to the skillet and stir, then cover and let steam until broccoli is tender, about 3-5 minutes. If the bottom of your pan seems dry, drizzle with additional sesame oil (one teaspoon at a time).
- Add the cooked and drained lo mein noodles into the skillet with the broccoli. Stir until everything is combined. The noodles might be sticky, so drizzle them with sesame oil and work them apart with your hands or tongs.
- When ready to serve, add in cashews, avocado and scallions. Season with black sesame seeds, then drizzle with tamari. Enjoy!
