Hakka noodles – An irresistible spicy bowl of perfectly cooked noodles loaded with crunchy vegetables with hot chili garlic sauce.
Did you know that noodles are considered to be a symbol of good luck during the Chinese New Year? For my family noodles are a great weeknight meal that everyone loves. Since I started making them at home few years ago, we have almost stopped the takeout and instead enjoy these healthier home cooked, low sodium version.
I usually make them with a lot of colorful vegetables like red and green peppers, carrots, purple and green cabbage, lots of garlic and scallions. So, grab a pair of chopsticks and get ready to enjoy these yummy noodles along with some vegetable manchurian.

How did you chop your veggies so fine? I love all your recipes and my experiences have been so good that even for a party I pick up your recipes and make them for the first time knowing they’ll turn up well
Hi Jaya, Thank you for your kind words. I am so happy to hear that you pick my recipes for parties. A goof chef’s knife for cabbage and peppers and julienne slicer for carrots is what I use. If veggies are chopped properly, they maintain a nice texture and visual in the dish.
