Chineese Noodles



This is an easy and yummy noodle dish. I use all kinds of vegetables to make this healty. For my noodles I used the Hakka noodles you get in the Indian grocery store.

Ingredients:
- 1 cups chopped cabbage
- 1 carrot cut lengthwise
- 1 cup beans cut diagonally
- 1 red bell pepper cut into strips
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 1 bunch of spring onions cut it diagonally keeping the white and green separate
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp vinegar (adjust to taste)
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 tbsp Sriracha Hot Chili or similar variety (adjust to taste)
- 1 pack Hakka noodles
- salt to taste

Method:
1. Cook the noodles as per the instructions in the packet. While cooking the noodles add a little bit of oil. Once it is cooked wash the noodles in cold water and set it aside.
2. In a pan at high heat add the oil. Add onions and sauté it for a minute or two. Now add the carrots, bell pepper and beans and cook them for a minute. Add the cabbage and the white of the spring onions and mix them all together for a couple of minutes.
3. Add the seasoning now. Mix in the cooked noodles and sauté them all well. Do a taste test and add additional seasoning if required. Meanwhile keep mixing the noodles well and if you feel it will stick to the bottom then add a tablespoon of oil to it.
4. Turn off the stove and add the green part of the spring onion and the bean sprouts. You need your sprouts to be crisp so add them at the end. Serve it hot.

When making this dish remember to keep the heat high. The vegetables need to be cooked only for a few minutes so they retain a crunch to it.
