Fried noodles with Chinese veggies

Do you know broccoli? Sure. But do you know Chinese broccoli? Not yet?

 

Here's your chance to get to know Gai Lan...followed by some tasty fried noodles.

Hold my kale! - Part 2

 

Gai Lan aka Chinese broccoli is my second sort of kale I'd like to introduce to you. 

 

This dish will be served with fried noodles, but it is still a simple dish and easy to cook for you. 

 

 

Prepare kale, chilis, garlic and ginger like I told you in my first kale recipe.

  

 

New to the basic kale recipe are these guys: 

 

1. Chinese spring onions. They are much more sleek than the spring onions we know in the Western world.

 

2. Shitake mushrooms are very popular in the Western world and very healthy.

 

3. Mung bean sprouts. A nice relative to the so often used soy bean sprouts.

 

Wash & dry them first.

 

 

Cut the shitake mushrooms into halves.

 

Cut the roots off the spring onions and cut the spring onions into 5 centimeter long pieces. 

 

The mung bean sprouts go into the wok as they are.

 

 

Before the wok comes into play, cook one portion of Chinese noodles for up to 5 minutes.

 

 

Drain the noodles and put aside. Now the wok cooking begins.

 

 

Cook the stems of the Gai Lan first for 2 minutes in some coconut oil, before the shitake mushrooms join in. 

 

 

After another 2 minutes the rest of the Gai Lan joins in.

 

 

Now, after some seconds each, add the chilis, garlic and ginger...

 

 

...and the mung bean sprouts...

 

 

...and - finally - the noodles. Stir fry everything well and add some soy sauce to taste before you serve the dish.

 

 

Please like & share! Thanks.
