VEGGIE NOODLES

Hi, its been a long time. Yes the reasons are the same, busy with other things. But, here I am with a new recipe that has become a regular at home now. I learnt this recipe from a cousin of mine, it's healthy and easy to make. Its called...

VEGGIE NOODLES

INGREDIENTS

ANGEL HAIR PASTA (12) : 1 packet
CABBAGE: 1 cup chopped
CARROT: 1 cup chopped
GREEN PEPPERS: !/2 cup chopped
GREEN CHIILI's : 2-3 slit it long
GINGER: 3 tbsp grated
OLIVE OIL or VEGETABLE OIL: around 3-4 tbsp
MAGGI MASALA POWDER : 1-2 packets
SOY SAUCE: 2 tbsp
SALT if required

Veggie Noodles



MAKING

Boil the Pasta as per the box instructions. One the pasta is cooked, keep it aside. Next, cut the above mentioned Veggies length wise like match sticks and set it aside.

Take a pan with oil, once heated, add 2 Tbsp Ginger, 2 Green Chilli's and the cut Vegetables, saute it for a couple of minutes and transfer it in a plate. Take the same pan, add oil , once heated, add the rest of the Ginger, Green Chilli's, Soy sauce and the Maggi Masala powder packets. Saute it for 3 minutes, add the sauteed vegetables kept aside and cook it for another 4-5 minutes or until everything has blended well. Finally add the cooked pasta and mix it well. Delicious Veggie Noodles is ready to eat. Serve it hot with Sirachi Sauce and believe me, its yummy.

TIPS

You can add 1-2 tsp of Oil to the boiling water when cooking pasta, this ensures that the pasta doesn't stick to each other after draining them.

Make sure you don't over cook the veggies as its more tasty if its crunchy and you have that bite.

I for one am happy that Maggi Noodles has been banned but I could use the Masala powder packets. If you do not wish to use them, use a bit of Dhania-Jeera powder, turmeric powder and a pinch of Garam Masala as an alternative.

Don't over-cook the Soy Sauce, also add salt as required as Soy sauce is very salty so very minimum would be required and if possible you could avoid it all together.

Add as much Ginger as you can because it adds so much flavor and also is very good for health.

This recipe is healthy , easy to make and is tasty.
