  • 2 packs noodles (2 servings (150 to 180 grams))
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil (or sesame oil)
  • 1 tablespoon garlic chopped
  • 1 to 3 green chili peppers slit (adjust to taste)
  • 1 small onion sliced or 3 tbsp spring onions (optional)
  • 2 to 3 cups mixed veggies julienned (cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, green beans)
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper crushed (powder)

Sauce - optional

  • 1 tablespoon soya sauce (or star anise & 1 strand mace)
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar (or lemon juice)
  • 1 to 2 teaspoon hot sauce (like chilli sauce or sriracha)

How to make the recipe

Cooking noodles

  • Bring 5 cups water to a rolling boil. Add the noodles and cook them al dente without making mushy. They should be cooked just until done so don't overcook.
  • Follow the instructions on the pack for cook time.  When they are done, drain them to a colander.
  • Rinse them well under running cold water. Sprinkle 1 tsp oil and spread it to the noodles. This prevents them from turning sticky. Set aside.
  • While the noodles cook, prepare the veggies & garlic.

Making veg noodles

  • Pour oil to a hot wok and regulate the flame to medium high.
  • Add garlic and green chilies. Stir fry for 30 seconds and add onions. If using spring onions, add only the white portions.
  • Fry them for a minute and then add all the veggies - carrots, bell pepper & cabbage.
  • Toss & stir fry on the highest flame for 2 to 3 mins until they are half done yet crunchy.
  • Add cooked noodles, pepper and salt. Optional - pour in vinegar, soya sauce & hot sauce if using.
  • Toss and stir fry for 2 mins. Serve veg noodles hot or warm.
