Egg Maggi Noodles/ Egg Noodles

Egg Maggi Noodles.. Second post of the year with my favourite dish.. Maggi noodles are my weakness, if I have maggi at home I will never think of anything to eat at lunch or even dinner some times. That is the main reason my hubby never allows me to buy more then 2 to 3 packs of maggi noodles and sometimes I would be left with only noodles no masala because I love to eat more masala in my maggi.. While we moved from India to UK I had got a big pack of maggi noodles and used all of the masala packets but still I had one bar noodles left without masala and I use to forget to buy from store every time..This was the main reason to make this egg maggi noodles, Yesterday was the day to cook that pack and finished it asap other wise if my hubby would have seen it I'm keeping this pack from 6 months then that pack would have gone to dustbin with out even checking the expire date and I would have been banned for not touching maggi noodles for a long time..

Belive me, the maggi noodles had its own taste and by adding egg and vegetables this dish went to some other level of taste which I can describe by saying only one word AWESOME and this was the best left over noodles.I have used dark soya sauce but you can even use light but I prefer dark color as it gives a nice vibrant effect for the food..

Ingredient's.

1 pack of maggi noodles (with out maggi masala)

1 cup vegetables thinly slice (cabbage,beans,carrot)

Hakka Noodles..

Cooking this Hakka Noodles is very easy, you just have to know how much to boil the noodles. If the noodles are over cooked then u won't be getting the perfectly cooked hakka noodles. So make sure you follow the instruction on the pack or you just boil the noodles for 2 to 3 minutes because you will be cooking the noodles again. I can say that this was the best noodles i have cooked so far. On the day when i cooked this noodles, i shared it with my friends in the apartment. They liked it so much that on the next day one of my friend called me to show her how to cook hakka noodles. For her kids, this has become the favorite food, they just want noodles on every weekends... If we can make a kids happy by our cooking then it means we have succeed in our goal.
