Vegetarian Noodles

Karen and Greg

Inspired by a Hokkien noodle binge!

  • 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot, cut into thin cubes
  • 1 red capsicum, chopped
  • 2 small zucchini, sliced
  • 1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 cups of mushrooms, quartered
  • 1 cup of snow peas
  • 1 cup of chopped celery
  • 1 parsnip, cut into thin cubes
  • 1 packet of Hokkien noodles
  • 1–2 tablespoons of oil
Sauce
  • ½ cup of crunchy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup of Markwort’s honey
  • (shameless family-promotion!)
  • ¼ cup of soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of Thai sweet
  • chilli sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of rice wine
  • (not essential)
  • 1 egg, whisked
  • ¼ cup of coriander
  • mountain

    While preparing the veggies, place the Hokkien noodles in boiling water to soften. Add oil to your wok or frypan. Add the garlic and onion and cook until the onion is semi-transparent. Add all the veggies, except the mushrooms and snow peas. Stir fry on medium-high heat. Add the pre-prepared sauce and toss through. (You may need to add a little water at this stage to obtain the right consistency). Simmer gently for about 3–5 minutes before adding the mushrooms.

    FAt this stage whisk the egg in a saucer and place in the microwave on high for 1 minute. (If you run a bread knife around the cooked egg, it should come off the saucer quite easily). Slice the egg thinly.

    Add the snow peas for the last 2 minutes of cooking (this way they stay crunchy!). Sprinkle with sliced egg and additional coriander.
