Veg Noodles

Vegetable noodles Recipe with step by step photo - Vegetable noodles is a very popular Indo Chinese dish. It is very easy to prepare and tastes delicious. I have added lot of vegetables to make it healthy. You can even use whole wheat noodles to make it even healthier. This version of Veg noodles is neither spicy nor hot as I have not added any chili sauce in it. The veggies can be of your choice.

Typically, while making any Indo Chinese dish, the heat should be high and the ingredients have to be tossed and stirred continuously. While making any stir fry dish at home, it’s better to use wide pan or wok. So that it’s easy to toss and stir.

Veg noodles goes well with Veg manchurian, Paneer manchurian, Chili paneer or Gobi Manchurian.






Ingredients:
  • Chinese noodles - 2 packets (150 grams)
  • Garlic (Finely chopped) -2-3 cloves
  • Ginger (Finely chopped) - 1/2 inch
  • Onion (chopped) - 1 medium
  • Cabbage (thinly sliced) - 1/2 cup
  • Carrot (thinly sliced) - 1 medium size
  • French beans (thinly sliced) – 8-10
  • Capsicum (chopped) - 1 medium size
  • Olive oil -2 + 1/2 tbsp
  • Soya sauce - 2 tsp
  • Vinegar - 1 tsp
  • Tomato sauce- 1 tbsp
  • Chili sauce - 1/2 tsp or as required
  • Pepper powder - to taste
  • Salt - to taste
  • Coriander leaves (chopped) - 1/4 cup

Method:

1. Bring enough water to boil in a pan, adding 1/2 tsp of olive oil and 1/2 tsp of salt.

2. Add noodles to the boiling water. Stir it by using fork to prevent the noodles from sticking together and allow to cook the noodles till they are just cooked. It will take 2 to 3 minutes. Do not over cook the noodles.

3. Once the noodles are cooked, drain them in a colander.

4. Rinse the noodles under cold tap water to prevent it from sticking to each other.

5. Drizzle 1 tsp soy sauce and 1 tsp vinegar over it and toss the noodles well, so that they get coated evenly on the noodles. Keep it aside.

6. Heat oil in a large wok on medium heat. Add ginger and garlic, sauté for a min.

7. Add onions and keep stirring. Stir fry on high heat till onions become translucent.

8. Add beans, carrot and capsicum, mix well. Stir fry for about 5 to 6 minutes till the edges of the veggies start to slightly brown. (You can cut down on the stir frying time, if you prefer half cooked or more crunchy veggies)

9. Add in salt and pepper powder, mix well.

10. Add soy sauce, tomato sauce and chili sauce (I am not adding chili sauce here because making for my kid.) and mix well.

11. Add the cooked noodles and keep on tossing and stir frying the noodles till the veggies are mixed well with the noodles for about 2 minutes.

12. Switch off the flame. Add coriander leaves and mix well.

13. Serve hot veg noodles as it is or with Veg manchurian, Paneer manchurian, Chili paneer or Gobi Manchurian.
