If you've always desperately wanted to make your favourite Chinese takeaway dish but it always misses the mark, @fullhousekilmarnock have got you covered.
There's nothing like tucking into a juicy of your choice after a tough week of work, and a Chinese meal always seems to hit the spot in a way that other cuisines don't. However, sometimes, it can come with a hefty price tag, and if you're looking to , or just not splurge as much as you usually do, then you may want to make your favourite dish at home.
If your go-to is a chicken chow mein, you're in luck, as a takeaway has shown you exactly how to recreate the deliciousness in your own kitchen - and if you're up for a challenge, it could be fun.

Chow mein is a delicious dish, and the roots of it can be traced back to ancient China, where noodles have been a dietary staple for over 2,000 years. Over the centuries, variations of chǎomiàn were developed in many regions of China; there are several methods of frying the noodles and a range of toppings can be used.
So, if you want to make it yourself, you need oil in a pan to begin. Then you should pop some onions into it to brown off. Then you need to add some luckyboat thick noodles to the mix. These need to be tossed together.
Then, beansprouts need to be added, spring onions, and dark soy sauce, until the noodles are looking a deeper colour.
Light soy sauce was then popped into the pan, along with salt, MSG, a pinch of white pepper, shao h wine and sesame oil. This can be then placed into a bowl and kept separate for the time being.
Then, you'll need to take some chicken blanched in stock water, and pop it into the hot pan you were using to make the noodles. Add some dark soy sauce to the chicken to make it extra tasty, and then some light soy sauce too.
Salt, MSG, shao h wine and sesame oil also need to be added to the chicken as well, and then the chicken can be added to the noodles. Voila, it's then done, and you can tuck in and see whether your version lives up to the one you can get at your local Chinese takeaway.
In the comments, many were wondering what MSG actually is, and according to Mayo Clinic, it is called Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a flavour enhancer often added to restaurant foods, canned vegetables, soups, deli meats and other foods. MSG has been used as a food additive for many years.
