China Blue
I discovered the love for Chinese food in my hometown on Targu Mures in Transylvania . We have there a nice Chinese Restaurant called China Blue which is amazing with variety of dishes to choose from . It was always my go to place whenever i wanted to eat outside and is the one place i miss it from my country . They have as i said a diverse menu with everything from sushi to chicken soup , chicken in 5 flavors , beef dishes , Chinese rice and noodles and spring rolls. What is the best about China Blue is the fact that during lunch hours they serve an entire menu at a very cheap and affordable price , around 4 euros , which includes usually a soup , main course and dessert ( fried bananas or apples , fried cinnamon ice cream ) . Outside from the lunch menu usually the prices are a bit high but it can totally worth it because the taste and the excellence is beyond words .Is a must once you are in Targu Mures !
So as i was saying i ate this meal course for the first time in China blue and i totally felt in love with it , since then i have always trying to cook it and discover new ingredients and new recipes to try to improve myself . I can say 100% that Asian cuisine is by far my favorite one , whenever i am abroad i always try to find the closest Asian restaurant near me .
Chinese chicken noodle recipe
In this post i will tell you all about the Chinese chicken noodle recipe , how to cook it and everything you need to know . So let's get started !
Ingredients :
- Chicken breast ( half kilo or less that that )
- Chinese noodles
- Soya sauce
- Ham
- Corn
- Bell pepper ( all colors )
- Spring onion
- Eggs ( 1 or 2 depends how many portions you want to cook )
- Chickpea
- Parsley ( optional )
- Olive oil or regular
- Pumpkin or eggplant
Spices :
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Oregano
- Curry
- Paprika
For the Chinese noodles i used Nudo which was the only one i found in Migros here in Turkey . Sometimes i eat from this brand noodle soup and is amazing so i recommend this product is you are in Turkey . Price was 3 TL.
For the soya sauce i used a product from Carrefour here in Elazig , Turkey . There are 2 types of soya sauce , the very black one and a lighter color . Mine was the dark one and is the one i prefer . Price is 8 TL.
Step by step recipe :
-First thing first is to cut all the veggies and the ham into small pieces , for the bell pepper i prefer to cut them into long and slim slices . The others just very small and the spring onion julienne cut .
-Cut also the chicken breast into long slim slices and spice it up with salt , paprika and little bit of curry . Mix it and let it rest for 10 minutes .
- After all the veggies are cut off prepare 1 or 2 eggs in the same way you make omelette , just mix the eggs and add a pinch of salt . Leave it on the side.
-Boil water and add over the noodles in a can and leave it for 5 minutes after you can mix them and remove the water and put the noodles on the side.
Best thing about the noddles is that , they don't need boiling , is enough just to add water to cover them and in 5 minutes or less are good to go.
After you have all this things ready now is the time to start cooking .
- First step is to heat up a pan with some olive oil or regular one , just a few spoons is enough. When the oil is hot add the eggs and make them as scrambled into very small pieces . Remove from the fire and set aside.
Mine are a bit big , try to make them smaller that this , the thing is not to feel them or see them inside the food , they must blend inside.
- Next step ,on the same pan add a bit more oil without cleaning the pan after you cooked the eggs. When the oil is heated up add the chicken and let it cook on both sides .
- Add the spring onion and after 1 minute or so add one by one all the other veggies and the ham as well .
- After all the vegetables went inside now is time to add the spices starting with the salt , black pepper and curry powder . Basically this is what i do , i add the the spices i found in the kitchen because the result cannot be bad any other way .
- As the noodles water drained add them over the veggies and mix for a couple of minutes on the low fire .
- After you mix it you can close the fire and add 3 spoons or more based on your taste , of soya sauce . Mix very good !
Now the dish is ready to be served !
Dinner for two .
I hope you guys liked this recipe post and make sure to tune in for the other recipes and try to cook this dish as well , is not hard just you need a bunch of products from the street bazaar . But trust me the taste is amazing and if you are an Asian cuisine lover like me you will enjoy this dish very much so .
