Stir fried noodles



I usually cook a basic noodle( noodles cooked in hot boiling water , then strained using a colander) and then I fry them with lots of veggies, eggs and chicken. This is a Indo-Chinese cuisine. Quite simple and healthy( as I'm cooking wheat noodles). The taste is simply incomparable. Here goes the recipe:

Ingredients:
Wheat noodles - 200 grams
carrots - 2 nos
beans - 50 grams
capsicum - 2 nos
spring onions - 50 grams
boneless chicken - 500 grams
chicken stock cubes - 1 nos
soya sauce - 1 tbsp
pepper - 1 tsp
eggs - 4 nos
chilly powder - 1 tbsp
garlic paste - 1tbsp
salt for taste
oil for stir frying


Method:
Bring lots of water to boil in a stew pot. Add noodles and cook till done. Strain using a colander and keep aside. Cut thin strips of carrots, beans, capsicum, spring onions and keep aside. In a wok( kadai) add oil and stir fry eggs, shredded chicken , chilly powder and juliennes of vegetables. Now add soya sauce, chicken stock cubes and stir fry. Finally add cooked noodles, salt and pepper and stir fry. stir fry for 3 min or until the noodles is hot. Serve hot.

Note: Instead of salt ajinomoto can be added. The vegetables can be added ( even mushrooms,cabbages etc can be added) or excluded as per choice. Even pork, prawns etc can be added as per choice. For a vegan version exclude eggs, chicken, and chicken stock( use veg stock instead)

  2. Thanks Chaitrali :) I've tried adding sprouts in fried rice and it tastes really good. Will surely try it in noodles some time (I'm not a noodles fan though).
