Lomi or pancit lomi is a Chinese-Filipino dish made with a variety of thick fresh egg noodles of about a quarter of an inch in diameter. Because of its popularity at least in the eastern part of Batangas, there are as many styles of cooking lomi as there are eateries, panciterias or restaurants offering the dish. Variations in recipes and quality are therefore very common.

Magic meat or TVP is added in hydrated form to lessen the pork content and the addition of soy protein increases the volume and nutritional value of the recipe.

Lomi is typically cooked using a deep wok, and bout 9-10 minutes is the cooking time for a single serving of lomi. Lomi is best eaten while steaming hot.
