My girls love noodles, but a lot of asian inspired recipes are too complicated and spicy for them. Both gobbled these up so I hope they are a hit with your little ones.
Sauce:
3 T soy sauce
1 t fish sauce
1 T tomato sauce
1 t crushed garlic
1 t crushed ginger
1 T vinegar
1 t brown sugar
Noodles and vegetables:
1 T oil
2 carrots, julienned
1 capsicum, julienned
1 head of broccoli, cut into small florets
250g dried noodles
400g beef schnitzel, cut into thin strips
3 spring onions, chopped
1. Mix all the sauce ingredients together.
2.Boil a pot of water, cook noodles as long as instructions say. Add broccoli to the pot to cook around 3 – 5 mins.
3. Heat a frying pan to medium-high heat. Add carrots and capsicum and cook for 3 mins, stirring often.
4. Add the schnitzel and brown.
5. Add the drained noodles and broccoli, sauce mixture and spring onions. Cook over medium heat for 3 mins, stirring with tongs to mix.
6. Serve in bowls.
Noodle hint for littlies: If the noodles are really long and difficult to handle I get some scissors out once I have served them and chop them shorter. This makes them easier for little ones to scoop them into their mouths.
