The medley of Chinese and  Indian cuisne is another wonder that amazes me to the nth extent, after the Mughlai and Middle Eatern medley with desi ingredients!

Served with regular condiments of soy sauce and chili vinegar on the sound, it’s no less than the heaven in the mouth. A full on food-coma.

You may see umpteenth number of school and college kids feeding on this dish, from Chinese van street vendors and socializing with each other with some “Chinese food” in India. I have such fond memories from my time, involved in such an activity ;). When the boarding school mess served the Hakka noodles for dinner, that used to be the best meal of the month.

In America, we order this dish as Veg Lo-mein. But I have to say that it doesn’t taste even closer to the Indo-Chinese Version. Boiled noodles tossed in loads of stir fried vegetables and seasoned with dark soy sauce and chili vinegar does the trick. It’s a complete meal in itself or can be served with Veg Manchurian in Hot Garlic Sauce or Veg Manchurian in Sweet & Sour Sauce or Kung Pao Tofu  or a curry of your choice.

This is how I made it!

Enjoy this dish as a lunch box, lunch or dinner. Treat your kids and friends over this comfort food. Take it as a potluck dish to picnics and get togethers. It’s easy enough to whip over a busy weekday night too!

Enjoy some Hakka noodles from my Indian American Kitchen in yours!

  1. I just love this dish. I’ve fallen in love with soba noodles, and this dish will be a quick and easy dinner! The light you’ve captured in these photos is amazing. Are you using natural or artificial? Either way you’re a pro!

      1. Yes I remember Kroger only too well Sonal, we used to live in Texas. I’m kicking myself now for getting rid of so many great dishes/pots etc. when we downsized. I want to go back to Goodwill and demand that I have them all returned to me :).
