Notes

The noodles I used is the fresh/ steamed variety ( see photo in the post) and is found inside the refrigerator and not the shelves. However, if you cannot find these, you can use the dry noodles and cook it according to package directions before using in the recipe.
Note that the fresh chow mein noodles still need to be cooked briefly in boiling water. The direction on mine says to to cook it in boiling water for 40 seconds until the noodles are separated.
