Notes

  1. 

If you have chopped veggies at hand by the time your noodles are boiling you can start stir frying the veggies so you can save time. Otherwise you can wait till you strain the noodles after cooking them.
  2. To keep the noodles sticking with each other make sure that you cool the noodles immediately after draining them rinsing them with cold water makes sure of that.
