One of my all time favorite dishes is Chinese Shrimp Stir Fried Noodles with Hand Made Noodle Recipe 蝦炒麵. Filled with flavor and easy to eat, I make this many times a year for my family. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Chow mein (/ˈtʃaʊ ˈmeɪn/ and /ˈtʃaʊ ˈmiːn/, simplified Chinese: 炒面; traditional Chinese: 炒麵; Pinyin: chǎomiàn) are Chinesestir-fried noodles with vegetables and sometimes meat or tofu; the name is a romanization of the Taishanese chāu-mèn. The dish is popular throughout the Chinese diaspora and appears on the menus of most Chinese restaurants abroad.^[1] It is particularly popular in India,^[2] Nepal,^[3] the UK,^[4] and the US.^[5]

Etymology

The words chow mein mean ‘stir-fried noodles’, also loosely translating to “fried noodle” in English, chow meaning ‘stir-fried’ (or “sautéed”) and mein meaning ‘noodles’. The pronunciation chow mein is an English corruption of the Toishanese pronunciation chāu-mèn.^{[citation needed]} The Toishan dialect was spoken by migrants to North America from Toishan.
