Ingredients Serving: 3

2 tbsp rice
2 tbsp short noodles or broken hakka noodles
Water as required
1 cup frozen veggies or mixed vegetables (a mix of carrot, beans, peas (optional), cauliflower and cabbage)
1/4 cup sliced cabbage
1/4 cup sliced spring onion
3-4 cloves chopped garlic
1 whole star anise
2 tsp chinese schezwan masala (I used Ching's. A good substitution is chaat masala.)
1 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp vinegar
1 tsp tomato ketchup or tomato puree
1 tsp chinese red chilli sauce (I used Ching's)
1 tsp green chilli sauce (I used Ching's)
1 tbsp light soya sauce
1 tbsp lime juice
Salt to taste

Instructions

Thaw the vegetables if frozen. If not, chop them nicely. The prep time will vary accordingly.
Boil water with salt and a tsp of oil in it. Once it reaches a boiling point, add in the noodles. Cook it for 10 minutes and strain in a colander. Then pour in cold water into the colander.
At the same time, on a parallel burner, steam the rice and keep it aside.
In a large wok, add some sesame oil to heat. Then add in the star anise and chopped garlic. Cook till the garlic is fried.
Next, add in the chilli powder and wait till the oil turns red and the powder almost disappears.
Now add in the veggies, including the onions. Stir fry it for 2-3 minutes. (This varies as per the use of frozen or fresh veggies. Fresh veggies may require at least 5 minutes to cook properly.)
Now, add a bit of salt. Then add in the boiled noodles and steamed rice. Mix it well with the veggies. Then lower the heat to simmer.
Next, add in the vinegar, red chilli sauce, green chilli sauce, schezwan spice powder and soya sauce. Also add in the tomato ketchup or puree, if using. Mix it well together.
Adjust the salt consistency as per taste. Then add in the lime juice.
Serve it steaming hot. (Ideally serve it with a bit of table soya or chilli sauce to add on top. It depends on your spice preference.)
