This recipe features Wei-Chuan pork mini buns nestled in a crispy chow mein noodle nest, adding a playful twist to a classic dish. The savory mini buns complement the crunchy noodles, making it a delightful crowd-pleaser.
1 : In a wok, heat oil to 375F. Use two strainers to shape the noodles into a nest and fry for 30 seconds until crispy.
2 : In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tbsp of oil and the mini buns.
3 : Add water and cover the skillet immediately. Cook for 5 minutes until all the water evaporates and the bottoms become crispy and brown.
4 : Add the remaining oil to the skillet and sauté the onions with garlic and scallion whites. Add the sauce and bring it to a light simmer.
5 : Add the vegetables and the mini buns back to the skillet. Cover and let it simmer for 5 more minutes. To thicken the sauce, add cornstarch slurry and mix well.
6 : Serve in the crispy bird nest noodles and enjoy!
