Note
* We can use any noodles available in your place.
* We can also use mushrooms and french beans as per availability.
Tips
** Maintaining veggies shape is not compulsory but it gives good texture and fry properly.
** Add 1 tsp of oil after straining noodles to avoid noodles sticking.
** If you feel noodles are over cooked and adding oil too not working then spread noodles in plate and keep under fan. We all learn things by doing mistakes so no need to worry just find the way to fix it smartly 😉😍.
** Do not overcook veggies, chow mein taste good when veggies are crunchy in taste.
** Saute chow mein on high flames.
** Donot burn sauces it will change (spoil) taste.
** Adjust salt accordingly as we added salt while boiling noodles and soya sauce too contains salt. So take care while adding salt.
** Adjust quantity of sauce accordingly as per your taste. You can also add only soya sauce and tomato ketchup too.
** If you do not have chill sauce, you can add kissan chilli tomato ketchup too. This is just an option(taste may vary a bit).
