  • Fresh or Frozen Lo Mein Noodles
  • 2 carrots, fully peeled
  • 2 scallions, sliced
  • 1 large bunch fresh basil
  • optional: peanuts

Hoisin Sauce

  • 1/2 cup coconut aminos
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seed butter
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • 1 tablespoon coconut vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon chili sauce (your favorite hot sauce, works great)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pinch of ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. When the noodles are almost finishing cooking add the peelings of the carrots to the boil noodles.
  2. When the noodles are finished cooking, using tongs remove them from the boiling water into the hoisin sauce saucepan. Toss with the tongs, until all the noodles are coated with the sauce.
  3. Top with the scallions, basil and peanuts (optional). Add more hoisin sauce if desired or use as a dip for another meal.

For the hoisin sauce

  1. In a medium size saucepan, combine all ingredients and bring to a simmer on low heat. Stir with a rubber spatula. Simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit.
  2. Remove about 1/2 cup or so of the sauce – store it in a small bowl. Add this portion to the noodles for more sauce or use as a dipping sauce for something else.
  3. Store in an air tight container for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
