Time for some noodles anyone?? I have been experimenting Chinese noodles lately, so if you see a petite Korean girl hanging out in the dry noodle aisle in an Asian market, it might be me!! Seeing so many different types of noodles brought out the curiosity in me! Of course I didn’t buy all of them, but one by one, I see myself testing them out.
This is an easy one pan meal that’s quite tasty and satisfying!! The Chinese egg noodles go perfectly with protein and veggies of your choice! And a great way to clean out your fridge too! Give it a try and you might get hooked, and the best part, it can be eaten hot or cold!!
cooking tips?
To save cooking time, the best way to approach dishes like this is to prep everything prior to cooking. Wash and chop all the veggies first, then set aside. Then cut the meat and marinate. Having all the ingredients ready to go, right next to you, will make cooking a breeze and enjoyable! And again, this noodle dish is also great as a to go meal. The flavor and texture remained quite well even when it was cooled!
