Fried Noodles!

Since most of the previous postings were recipes that I got from various sites and from friends via email, i thought i'd add something which i consider to be an original, call them "van gogh" noodles if u like:-)

Ok the way i cook i normally add eggs, but you can substitute eggs with chicken,beef or any meat you like!

Ingredients:(based on a serving for 2)
2 packs of mr.noodles(yea the 30Cent ones:-), you can use fancy chinese noodles if you like, depends on taste, i like mr.noodles)
2 tbps of oil
1 egg(scrambled with lottsa pepper)
red chilli powder(paprika for the ones who do not like it to too spicy:-)) 1 tbsp
chopped carrots,mushrooms,green peppers,onions 1/2 cup
mustard seeds,cumin seeds 1 tsp
soya sauce 1/2 tsp
salt to taste
corriander leaves to garnish

Boil the noodles for about 2 mins, make sure they are not completely done(not sticking to each other:-)), drain the water and let it stay
Heat the oil in a pan,add cumin and mustard seeds and when they start to crackle add the veggies
add the red chilli powder and heat on a low flame till onions are golden brown
add salt to taste
add the scrambled eggs
mix for about 2 mins on a low flame
add the noodles and fry it for about 2-4 mins and also mix the soya sauce

Serve hot, garnish with corriander leaves!
Quick and dirty "van gogh" noodles ready to eat :-)
