Hot & Spicy Chilli Garlic Noodles
Both the husband and I love to eat Indo-Chinese food. It’s always so quick to come together, doesn’t take much efforts and is so satisfying. As the monsoon season knock the doors here in Pune, this is the kind of food we crave for. I usually make a larger batch to last me for my lunch too the next day. Oh, I can tell you, it really tastes better the next day.
This recipe is made with South Asian sauces and combination of spices that makes it flavourful, fiery and delicious. Give me a bowl of this, and I am a happy soul. I use whatever vegetables I find in my refrigerator to add to this. The generous use of sauces makes it moist enough to not require any additional dish but I definitely love to pair this with vegetables in hot garlic sauce.
This is a fun family meal for us. The whole playfulness involved in slurping up noodle strands and fighting over the last few servings is so much fun. Reduce the heat quotient and see the delight of kids slurping up the flavourful noodles.
