Ingredients:
1 packet "Chinese Hakka noodles - VEG"
1 small capsicum
1/2 onion
1/2 cabbage
Green Beans - few
1 Carrot
Green peas - few
Red chilli sauce
Green chilli sauce
Soya Sauce
Tomato ketchup
How I made:
- Cut all the vegetables except beans into long vertical strands. Beans can be sliced into small pieces
- Since both me and my husband do not like the raw taste of vegetables, I cooked the vegetables (EXCEPT for CAPSICUM).Allow the water to boil. Add a pinch of salt. Add the rest of the veggies and cook for 5 min (Do Not cook it fully)
- Remove the water from the cooked vegetables using a strainer. Set this aside
- In a wok, Add about 10 cups of water + 1 spoon oil + 1 spoon SALT. Boil it. When the water starts to boil,add the hakka noodles and cook for about 5 min
- Do not over cook the noodles. They will end up tasteless
- When the noodles are PARTIALLY cooked, remove the wok from the stove and thoroughly WASH the noodles with COLD water.Washing noodles with cold water helps it in not becoming sticky
- Use a strainer to remove the water from the noodles and mix a tablespoon of oil with the noodles
- Set the noodles aside
- In a kadaai, add oil and heat
- Add capsicum and the rest of the cooked vegetables and saute. Make sure there is no water left
- Add a tablespoon each of soya sauce, green chilli sauce, red chilli sauce. Add a teaspoon of tomato ketchup and saute along with veg
- Add salt (use discretion)
- Add the cooked hakka noodles and saute
- If the noodles taste less spicy add red chilli sauce to adjust the taste
- The noodles taste better without ginger garlic paste
- Add salt while partially cooking the hakka noodles
- Wash the cooked hakka noodles with COLD water and strain the water
- Mix a tablespoon of oil to the cooked hakka noodles
- DO NOT fully cook the vegetables. Half cooked vegetables have a good taste
- Add red chilli sauce to adjust the spicy taste
- Serve HOT :)
