Foodie Fridays: Fried noodles!


Its been getting harder to cook and wash up since my ginormous belly (everyone is asking when I'm going to pop) is getting in the way.  Once in a while, hubby very nicely helps out with the cooking, and loves to whip up his own version of stuff.  Here's his version of fried noodles, which the little boy also likes (and I like too, since I only have to chop up stuff, and its a one dish meal in itself)...

Fried Noodles
(Serves 3-4)

Ingredients:
:: 4 cloves of garlic, sliced
:: 1 medium onion, diced
:: 1 packet of Hokkien noodle (soak before cooking)
:: 200g minced pork
:: 1 medium carrot, sliced into strips
:: 100g French beans, sliced
:: 100g button mushrooms, sliced
:: Dark & light soya sauce
:: Black pepper
:: Balsamic vinegar
:: 1/2 cup chicken stock

Steps:
1. Marinate minced meat with a dash of light soya sauce and black pepper, set aside for 15 minutes.
2. Cook noodles in boiling water until almost cooked.
3. Fry garlic and onions in a frying pan until fragrant.
4. Add minced pork to pan, fry until almost cooked.
5. Add carrots, french beans and mushrooms, fry for additional 3 minutes.
6. Add noodles, half a tablespoon of dark soya sauce, a dash of balsamic vinegar, and 1/2 cup of chicken stock, stir-fry until ingredients are well mixed.

Done! :)  This is great for days when you just want something simple, yet filling, but don't want a pasta dish.  Have a blessed weekend folks!

  1. Sounds tasty! What a blessing to have a husband who cooks so well!

    I can't imagine cooking with a big belly - I recall my tummy literally feeling the heat of the stove when I was heavily pregnant the last time :P
