It would only taste like crap if you don’t know how to cook. The recipe was actually great — I just used some different veggies because that’s what was in my fridge. The one thing I would mention is to NOT put the oil in the pan on high heat… this burns the garlic/ginger. Try low to medium heat at first and once you start adding the onions, increase the heat to med-high…. otherwise, YUM!

[Reply]
hetal Reply:
August 28th, 2009 at 6:43 pm
Kikkoman makes a good soy sauce. Low sodium soy sauce is great if you have health issues (eg high blood pressure, etc) but the problem can be that it’s flavor is not as salty. If you don’t have health issues, you can try the regular version and see if it works for you.
Also, the other sauces such as chili sauce and stir-fry sauce should also help with the color.

In the indian version of Chinese noodles, Ajino-Motto (Or MSG)powder is used which is not available in US.
With the Ajino-Motto powder, the flavor of noodles is simply gr8.

wonderful recipe !
one question ! if some people don’t eat garlic and onions.. do you have any suggetion for that what to replace it? I know it wont give the same flavour but is there anything in your idea would make it excellent even without using onion/garlic?
pls. let me know..thankyou for your great support !

hetal Reply:
December 29th, 2009 at 2:48 pm
Hi Yogita,
If you are making these noodles for people who normally do not eat garlic/onions, they probably will not miss the flavor too much. The ginger, soy sauce and chili sauce (as well as other flavorings) do provide quite a bit of flavor.

I made noodles as per your receipe they are really good. My question is why we use vinegar in noodles?
I found rice vinegar(white) in store. Is white vinegar is same as rice vinegar?
[Reply]
anuja Reply:
January 14th, 2010 at 2:16 pm
Vinegar is used in most of the Chinese cooking…the vinegar gives a hint of sourness to the dish which is really subtle.
Rice vinegar and White Vinegar are different, Rice vinegar has a little sweetness to it. You can use Rice vinegar but you might have to a add a little more than you would white Vinegar.
Hope that helps!

Hi,
If I wanted to add chicken to the recipe, should i cook it separately or along with the veggies themselves?
[Reply]
hetal Reply:
March 22nd, 2010 at 2:59 pm
Hi Parul,
You should cook the chicken first and pull it out of the pan. If you like, you can season it with a little soy sauce. In the same pan, you can cook the veggies and add it the chicken after they have cooked.
[Reply]
April 9th, 2010 at 11:57 pm
for this particular serving amount, if i wanted to add chicken… how much chicken would i add?? cups, pounds??
and i didnt understand when you said cook veggies and noodles first then add chicken?? right?

if i were to add chicken what kind of chicken? breast, thighs, legs…???

Hi Jessica,
Chicken breast works well for the noodles – they cook fast and hold shape well. For curries, we suggest chicken thighs and legs

Hi,
this is going to sound really silly but where did you buy your spoons from? im from england and we have really crap ones that take of the non stick from the bottom on the pan, or plastic ones that melt! I see you are using rubber ones? please could you know if there is a specific name for them and if i could purchase them anywhere online.
Thanks
Jenna

Hi Jenna,
There is no name or any information on them either and if we ever find them again, we will be buying about 50 

These spoons we got from a dollar store about 5 years ago and have not found anything like them again
Sorry, for being no help
TIP: try looking for spatulas that are heat resistant (so they don’t melt)

Hi EvoNymph,
Heating noodles is always a challenge. You can try to sprinkle a little water over the noodles and cover them with a damp paper towel before microwaving. This will create steam and help with the dryness.
