Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Prepare the Noodles: In a large pot, bring water to a rolling boil. Add the fresh Chinese egg noodles and cook for approximately 5 minutes, or until al dente. Drain immediately and set aside, keeping them warm. (5 minutes)

02

Step
6 mins

Sear the Beef: Turn on your multifunctional electric pressure cooker (such as an Instant Pot) and select the 'Sauté' function. Add the grapeseed oil, allowing it to heat up for about 30 seconds. Introduce the minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the beef skirt steak strips and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until they begin to brown, searing them to lock in their juices. (6 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Steam the Vegetables: Remove the browned beef from the pot and set aside to keep warm. Pour 1/2 cup of water into the pot. Insert the steamer basket and add the quartered portobello mushrooms, diagonally sliced carrot, julienned red bell pepper, and snow peas. Steam for approximately 5 minutes, ensuring they retain a slight crispness. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Create the Sauce: While the vegetables are steaming, whisk together the hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, and liquid aminos in a separate bowl. This will be your flavor base. (5 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Combine and Serve: Carefully release the pressure from the Instant Pot using the quick-release method as per the manufacturer's instructions (approximately 5 minutes). Unlock and remove the lid. Toss the cooked noodles, seared beef, and steamed vegetables with the prepared sauce, ensuring everything is well coated. Garnish generously with chopped green onion. Serve immediately and enjoy! (5 minutes)

For a deeper flavor, marinate the beef strips in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
If fresh lo mein noodles are unavailable, linguine or spaghetti can be used as a substitute. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
Feel free to experiment with other vegetables such as bok choy, broccoli, or snap peas.
Adjust the amount of hoisin and oyster sauce to your preference for sweetness and saltiness.

    This recipe is fantastic! The sauce is perfectly balanced, and the beef is so tender. I've made it several times, and it's always a hit.

    The steaming method for the vegetables works great. They come out perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making this again.
