How to prepare Hakka Noodles?

Folks, here is my simple recipe to prepare fantastic Hakka Noodles ! It's taken me 2.5 years to come back to this blog!

Ingredients (serves 2)
  • 1 pack (400gms) of White Hakka Veg Noodles
  • Cabbage - 1 cup (diced)
  • Capsicum - 1 cup (cut length wise - about 3-4 cms to resemble noodles ;) )
  • Carrots - 1 cup (sticks - length wise)
  • French Beans - 1 cup cut length wise
  • 2 Green Chillies
  • 2 tbsp Dark Soy Sauce (without garlic/chillies)
  • 1 tbsp White Vinegar
  • Salt to taste
  • White pepper power to taste
  • Oil to stir fry

Method
  • Take about 1200 ml of water and bring it to boil in a large pan.
  • Add Hakka Noodles + 1 tbsp of oil to the boiling water.
  • Just stir for about 1 min or so and remove the noodles strain and toss (important to note that Noodles should be par-boiled at this time, otherwise they will stick to each other)
  • Now take a pan, add the required quantity of oil
  • Add the Chillies first and all the Vegetables and Stir fry on high flame with a little salt.
  • Add Soy Sauce to the veggies and continue to stir
  • Add the noodles, pepper & salt at this stage and toss.
  • Add Vinegar if needed and toss again
  • Your Vegetarian Hakka Noodles is now ready !
Hakka Noodles as usual tastes best with Pure Tomato sauce but a dash of Tabasco & Green Chillies sauces does not hurt !


That's Fried Rice, Gobi Manchuria & Hakka Noodles (with the ladle)
