Instructions
- Make your noodles according to the instructions on the package. (If you're using spaghetti, then add a teaspoon of baking soda to your boiling water and then add the noodles and cook them. This makes them get more pliable, which works much better in Asian dishes.)

- For the stir fry: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the garlic and dried red chilies and pepper flakes and cook until the garlic is starting to turn evenly golden.

- Then add in the noodles and toss well to coat.Toss well for about half a minute.
- Then add in all of the veggies- cabbage, bell pepper, green onion, and minced green chili or green chili sauce and toss well for a few seconds to coat the veggies. Then switch off the heat.
- Let it sit for another minute or two. Taste and adjust salt and flavor. Add salt, more soy sauce or chili sauce if needed.
- Garnish with green onion, pepper and cilantro. Add some baked tofu to make into a meal or Serve with indo Chinese stir fries such as dragon chicken soycurls, manchurian, or other saucy Asian stir fries such as sweet and sour tofu or general Tso’s cauliflower.Store refrigerated for upto 3 days
