Wok 2: Fried noodles with prawns

Happy New Year of the Dragon!!

Today, in order to celebrate the Chinese New Year, I am going to give you a Chinese recipe probably known by all of you. Fried Noodles with prawns.

Difficulty: Easy
Preparation time: 30 minutes

Ingredientes for 2-3 persons

200gr de tagliatelle/noodels
1 Onion (if it is red onion better)
1 Green pepper
1 Courgette
2 Carrots
150gr of prawns
The green part of a leek (optional)
Soya sauce
Salt
Sunflower oil

Preparation:
 1. Clean under the tap the green part of the leek.

2. In a Wok (or, if you don't have a wok it's ok to use a pan) add a bit of sunflower or olive oil and cook the carrots, the onion, the green pepper and the courgette with a bit of salt. When it's ready keep it.

3. In another pan and without oil, cook the green part of the leek during one minute and then add all the vegetables we have cooked before. Cook it with hot fire for a minute, cover it and keep it.

4. Let the vegetables stand. Meanwhile, we cook the pasta in a pot with water and a stream of soya sauce.

5. While the pasta is being cooked. We cook in a wok or a pan the prawns with a bit of sunflower or olive oil. Once the sprawns are cooked put all together in the same wok: the vegetables, the sprawns and the pasta (previously strained under the tap)

6. Fried it all together for a while in the wok.

7. Then, if you like it you can add a bit more of soja sauce.

And that's it! Now you can celebrate the Chinese New Year with a Chinese dish.



To accompany this dish I suggest some prawn bread (you can find it in most supermarkets)

Wok 1

Estela and Ale taught me this recipe in Brussels. It is not typical from there, but it is really good!

Preparation time: 30 minutes
Difficulty: easy

Ingredients:

- Rice
- Mushrooms
- Courgette
- Onion
- Olive oil
- Maggi sauce: "de enige echte" (if you are in The Netherlands), Jugo Maggi (if you are in Spain) and for the rest of the countries, look for the same sauce that appears in the picture. It's name can be "Maggi juice" or "The real one" or who knows...
- Salt

Preparation:

1. Cut the onion in little pieces and in a wok (or if you don't have, in a pan) with olive oil fry it. When it is half cooked, add the courgette and bit of salt. When it is nearly ready add the mushrooms, a bit of the maggi sauce and let it cook.

2. While you are cooking the other ingredients, prepare the rice in a pot.

3. When everything is ready mix it and add as much maggi sauce as you like.

Enjoy!
