Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together potato starch and water until dissolved.
Add soy sauce, shaoxing wine, brown sugar, five spice powder, white pepper, and sesame oil to the bowl and mix well.
In another bowl, coat the sliced beef with 2 tablespoons of sauce and marinate for 30 minutes. Set aside remaining sauce.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated beef in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer cooked beef to a plate and repeat for all.
. Add more oil if needed, then stir-fry carrots, mushrooms, onion, and bell pepper until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Cook lo mein noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
Return seared beef to pan with any juices and add lo mein noodles, remaining sauce, and scallions. Stir-fry until combined and sauce is glossy, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and add a splash of water or broth to loosen sauce if desired. Serve immediately garnished with sliced scallions.
