Spizzzzy..rice noodles (strictly vegetarian :) )


Fresh flavors, bright colors …spring is here 🙂

Cook the rice noodles according to box instructions. Thin noodles just require soaking in boiling water. Thicker noodles may require 5-6 mins cooking .

cut all the veggies in thin strips. mince garlic and ginger.

For the sauce :
soy sauce – 2tbsp
red chilli garlic sauce – 3 tsp
green chilli sauce – 2 tsp
rice wine vinegar – 1 tsp (optional)
brown sugar – 1tbsp
Mix them all together, and if you taste it now, you will be thrown off by the intensity of the sauce, but whe we mix with the noodles it will be perfect.

Cut some paneer in thin strips and shallow fry them. You can replace with Tofu or scrambled eggs.
Image
Now for the easy part, heat 2 tbsp. of oil in a wok and sauté chillies, minced garlic and ginger.
Image
Saute the onions…
Image
Add the carrots and green beans.
Image
Now add cabbage.
Image
Finally add all the colored peppers… (when you add veggies in this order, it is easier to maintain their crispiness).
Image
The sauce goes in….
Image
Mix well with the veggies.
Image
Now ad the noodles , make sure the heat is ‘high’.
Image
Gently toss the noodles to mix with the sauce and veggies.
