Being your cousin, and therefore your mom’s nephew, I had the pleasure and honor of having many meals cooked by your mom, inc. this very special Tomato Beef Chow Mein. Remembering the days of our youth in the ‘hood, I recall fondly all those special meals all our moms made for us since three of our families lived within walking distance of each other. Your mom’s TBCM stands out.

I have LONG sought to find a restaurant that could even TRY to replicate your mom’s unique way of “burning” the noodles into a crunchy texture. Never accomplished that, the restaurants tended to think I was describing “Hong Kong” noodles.

I will have to try and whip this up myself. I’ll be thinking of the old days as I bite into my first mouthful, and will try to explain the importance of it all to my daughter. THANKS!

ClaireKaui: Awww, I’m so glad my Mom’s version is so close to what you were looking for. It must be fate that you found the recipe here, too, since we both had mothers with the same name. The love of tomato beef chow mein just can’t be denied.
