FOOD : Nudeln : Schezwan

I remember my boss's son back in 2005, who never ate spicy food ever, enjoyed these noodles soo much. That cute little thing was enjoying the nudeln, with his nose and face all red due to the spice. This is like my own version of Schezwan, which i particularly like, cause they kinda do turn out very close to what is available in the restaurants... of course minus the Ajinomoto. I don't really cook Chinese too much at all, not sure why tho, but I do try the noodles.

you will need
1 packet of Hakka Noodles-available at all stores
Chilli flakes (i powder the red chillies in my blender and have it ready most of the time)
5-6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1" ginger, finely chopped
1 cup Spring onion finely chopped
Vegetables(Carrot, tender beans, cabbage-all cut lengthwise and real fine)
1.5 spoons of soya sauce
Salt
Oil

Method:
Boil the Noodles separately. Add oil while doing so,so that they Dont stick to each other.

In a wide bottom pan/Wok, add about 5-6 spoons of oil, keep on a medium flame, add the garlic cloves, ginger, and now increase the flame, and immediately add Spring Onion, and keep stirring constantly. Add the veggies if you intend to, and give it a good stir, and mix well till they are kind of cooked but not fully. They should be crisp and not soft. Add the Chilli flakes at this stage and also the soya sauce and give it a good mix. Add the noodles, salt and mix well and allow on the flame (reduce the flame now) for some time. For a slightly crunchy texture, you can add roasted and ground peanuts here. I like them. Mix well and serve. :) pretty simple a meal, specially when you are in a tearing Hurry and Rush!!

If you like the egg noodles. you can break 2 eggs once you finish adding the Spring onion. Give it a mix and scramble them. Then you can add the Chilli flakes and proceed with the remaining.

For chicken, Add shredded Chicken (cooked) after frying the spring onions. the rest of the procedure remains the same.
