Quick Masala Noodles
by Tarla Dalal
A peppy noodle preparation easily made with readymade sauces and chopped vegetables. The Quick Masala Noodles has a nice crunch thanks to the chunky pieces of sautéed veggies. The cream imparts a rich feel to this dish, while the sauces impart a pungent tanginess. Colourful capsicums and juicy tomatoes are a must-add to this recipe, and it is also important to de-seed the tomatoes to retain the crunch and avoid gooeyness.
