    Hakka Noodles, Noodles & Instant Noodles – What is the difference?

    Instant Noodles like Maggi are fried while Noodles or Hakka noodles like Chings are dried during the manufacturing process of noodles. Instant Noodles hence gets cooked in 2-3 minutes while Hakka Noodles takes slightly more time of 5-6 minutes to get cooked.

    Instant Noodles come with seasonings or masala and while Hakka noodles come without seasoning or masala. Instant Noodles are stir fried with the seasonings directly while Hakka Noodles needs to be boiled and then tossed with veggies or ingredients of your choice.

    Ingredients

    • Noodles – Noodles is available in super markets, grocery stores and online. Cook them parboiled (half cooked) or al-dente (cooking firm till you feel them as bite with tooth) so that they do not end up overcooked when sautéed with veggies.
    • Veggies – I have used onion, cabbage, capsicum & carrots but it is purely your choice. You can add any vegetable like cauliflower, broccoli, mushrooms etc.
    • Sauce – I used soy sauce & chilli sauces. You can add chilli oil as an alternative to chilli sauce & other sauces, vinegar based on your taste preferences.
    • Oil – Veg Hakka Noodles tastes best with Olive oil. However it is not a compromise if you use refined oil or sesame oil.
