- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add chow mein noodles and cook over medium heat until cooked through but still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
- While noodles cook, heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and cook and stir until golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Add shrimp and cook and stir until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 5 minutes. Add consomme, celery, and salt; cook, covered, for 5 minutes. Add bean sprouts and mushrooms and bring to a simmer.
