1. Cook the lo mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water, then toss with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, remaining sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Set the sauce aside.
3. Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat.
4. Add broccoli, red bell pepper, carrot, sugar snap peas, and mushrooms to the wok. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp. Remove the vegetables from the wok and set aside.
5. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Stir in the white parts of the green onions, garlic, and ginger. Cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
6. Return the cooked vegetables to the wok and add the cooked noodles. Pour the prepared sauce over the mixture and toss to coat evenly.
7. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and the noodles to heat through.
8. Garnish with the green parts of the green onions, sesame seeds, and chili flakes if using. Serve hot and enjoy!
