This is not Chowmein or Hakka noodles or schezwan noodles or veg noodles … this is everyday noodles made from simple ingredients in pantry.
The only reason I used egg noodles in this recipe is because I LOVE egg noodles, you will always find egg noodles in my pantry. But you can use noodles of your choice; chowmein, ramen, instant noodles, udon …. even if you have soba noodles, use them! Who am I to judge! Everyone has their comfort noodles!
The sauce is key here; sriracha, ketchup and honey are must. Again, you have an opportunity to be fancy here; use your everyday ketchup … Heinz, Hunt’s, 365, Maggie …. your choice. (Mine is Maggie Hot & Sweet)
Now comes vegetables; onions (off course), garlic, ginger and green chillies (your taste buds are going to thank you) and rest depends on what’s in your fridge. Apart from cabbage, carrots and bell peppers … mushrooms – don’t hesitate, celery – gives extra crunch, edamame – you are my favorite person! Just cut/chop and stir!
Make your own everyday noodles!
P.S. I forgot to add but few sprinkles of roasted sesame while serving … muuah!
