Units
Scale
- 2 cups (473 ml) Plain Noodles
- 3/4 cup Cabbage
- 1 Medium Onion
- 1 Medium Carrot
- 10 to 12 French Beans
- 1/2 cup Capsicum
- 4 Sprigs Spring Onion
- 1 tbsp Finely Chopped Garlic
- 1/2 tbsp Finely Chopped Ginger
- 1 tbsp Tomato Sauce
- 1 tbsp Chili Sauce
- 1/2 tbsp Tomato Ketchup
- 2 tsp Soya Sauce
- Salt & Pepper
- 2 tbsp Oil
Instructions
- Heat enough water in a pan with salt and a few drops of oil. Once boiling, add noodles and cook until al dente. Drain the noodles in a colander and rinse under cold tap water. Set aside.
- While the noodles cook, peel and julienne the carrot, slice the onion, thinly slice the beans, julienne or finely chop the capsicum, and finely chop the spring onion, garlic, and ginger.
- Heat oil in a pan. Add garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the spring onion; sauté until light brown. Add the onion and sauté until soft and pink. Add the carrot and sauté for 2 minutes over medium-high heat.
- Add the beans and sauté for 1 minute. Add the capsicum and cabbage and sauté for another minute. Add salt, pepper, tomato sauce, tomato ketchup, chili sauce, and soy sauce. Mix well. (All sauces contain salt, so add less salt initially and adjust to taste.)
- Add the noodles (rinse again under cold tap water if they are sticking) and mix well to combine. Add the remaining spring onion, mix again, and cook for 1–2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Serve hot with a side dish of your choice.
Notes
- For optimal texture, ensure noodles are thoroughly rinsed with cold water after cooking to prevent sticking.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of chili sauce to control the spice level according to your preference.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave.
