Ingredients for Vegetable Noodles Stir Fry
NOODLES: Boil noodles as per instructions on the pack. Cook noodles al dente for best results. Use good quality hakka noodles only.
VEGETABLES: Cut vegetable juliennes and set aside. Use any vegetables of your choice but cut them into juliennes. Mushrooms also tastes wonderful in a stir fried dish. I did not add them this time because I did not have them handy. Also finely chop ginger, garlic, and chillies. Use chillies to suit your taste.
SAUCES: Use good quality soy sauce and chilly sauce and oyster sauce. I do not recommend the sauces that you get along with your restaurant delivery order. Always stock soy and chilly sauce in your refrigerator to stir up quick meals, like this.
How to make Noodles Stir fry in 3 simple steps
- STEP – I. In a wok, add oil, ginger, garlic, onion, and saute it for a few minutes. Then add the vegetables one by one and stir fry on a high flame for a minute or two.
- Step – II. Add in the sauces and saute for a few moments, taking care not to burn. You can use any stir fry sauces of your choice. I prefer to use soy and chilly sauce most of the time. Oyster sauce also gives a wonderful flavour to the noodles and I prefer to add a little. You could omit it if you wish to. Some people also like the taste of tomato sauce in stir fry but I prefer not using it for its sweet taste.
- Step-III. Finally the cooked noodles and seasonings like pepper powder and salt. After the noodles are done, you may like to add some sesame oil to enhance the flavour of the noodles. I love the taste of sesame oil in any stir-fry dishes. Garnish Vegetable Noodles Stir Fry with some chopped onion leeks.
