Vegetable Hakka Noodles is everyones favourite both young and old alike. I usually love having Hakka Noodles Schezwan style as they are a bit on the spicier end but since few years I have developed a liking for these plain yet tasty Hakka Noodles. Everyone has their own style of making them. Some like to spice it up or some like to have it with some hot and sour or spicy Manchurian Gravy to compensate the blandness. Well if you’re looking for healthier options to serve kids then this recipe of mine will surely be of your liking.
