Mixed Chowmein
A hearty, satisfying favorite, Mixed Chowmein is a classic stir-fried noodle dish that brings together a colorful medley of ingredients — meat, vegetables, and aromatic sauces — for a burst of savory flavor in every bite. Popular in Nepali, Indian-Chinese, and pan-Asian kitchens, it’s the ultimate comfort food for noodle lovers.
Long, springy noodles are boiled just right and then stir-fried in a sizzling hot wok with a mix of tender strips of chicken, juicy prawns or shrimp, and sometimes slices of buff or pork, making it a truly satisfying “mixed” version.
A rainbow of crisp vegetables — usually cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, onions, and spring onions — adds crunch, freshness, and color. The ingredients are tossed quickly over high heat with garlic, ginger, and sometimes green chilies for a hint of heat.
The signature flavor comes from a balanced blend of soy sauce, chili sauce, and a splash of vinegar, giving the chowmein its mouthwatering savory-tangy taste. A dash of pepper and a sprinkle of fresh spring onions or coriander finish it off beautifully.
Served steaming hot, Mixed Chowmein is delicious on its own or paired with momo, soup, or spicy pickles — perfect for lunch, dinner, or whenever you crave a comforting noodle fix packed with flavor and texture.
