Fried Noodles and Veggies

Fried Noodles and Veggies.

Can you think of a better way to eat your tasty carrots, Napa cabbage and daikon radish?⁠

Me neither.⁠

I remember many years ago when I lived downtown on Rochester St, we always ordered takeout from a restaurant in Chinatown called BenBen. One of their famous dishes (and our go-to favourite!) was "Fried noodles". ⁠

So, when I saw the gorgeous veggies in last week's Winter CSA basket, I thought why not try making my own?

1 napa cabbage, sliced into strips

2 tablespoon olive oil (for stir fry)

Pinch of salt, sugar and pepper

 

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Fry noodles in olive oil until crisp and golden brown.

2. Stir-fry onions in oil for 2 minutes, add carrots and daikon and stir fry for 2 minutes longer, add cabbage and bok choy and stir fry until slightly wilted (1 minute or less).
