VEGETABLE NOODLES !!! STEPWISE DETAILED POST

Hope everyone had wonderful weekend !!! Vegetable Noodles almost every one's favorite which I am posting today is little different from other posts. Yes I am posting it with stepwise pictures.  I am not much interested in posting step pictures, it does not mean that I don't like it ..I love to do so.  Sure it will be helpful for others.  But more than that I love to play with food styling and photography.  So if I want to concentrate in both step pictures and styling it is surely time consuming process.  Since some friends requested for step pictures for few dishes.   I am going post stepwise only for those dishes.  Ok coming to the recipe I always use ching's Noodles particularly for making vegetable noodles and chopsuey.  Always my fridge will be filled with few ching's sauces like Dark soy, chilli vinegar, Green chilli sauce. This Noodles and sauces are my very very favorite one  and I am using this for so many years and always keep them in stock :)

The most important thing while making this noodles is the vegetable should be Julienned evenly it should not be so thin or so thick.  Sauteing the vegetable plays important role..Don't over fry it.  It should be crisp and the color should not be changed in the end product. Adding Ajinomoto is absolutely optional.  It enhances the taste as well as maintain the color of the veggies.  But I did not add.  Here comes the recipe...

2. Check a noodle by pinching .  If it is hard let it cook for few more minutes.  This will take atleast 6 minutes.

4.  While doing this parallely heat oil in the wok.

Note:

1. Keep the flame in high from start to end.  Once everything is ready it just takes 5 to 6 minutes for the whole process. So keep an eye in the wok as we are doing the whole thing in high flame.
