porsche9, a chow mein is a stir-fry that includes noodles, whereas any other stir-fry does not necessarily include noodles e.g. a chop suey does not include noodles, and some of course include rice.
Hope that helps. :-))

Chow Mein is a specific recipe. Stir fry is a generic term for wok cooked meals.

Perhaps you could say chow mein is a recipe and stir fry is a method.

Chow Mein is fried noodles in english. and stir fry is a cooking technique.

Recipe? What recipe? Chow mein is a technique based dish rather than a recipe based dish.
