Dear Lakme, thank you very much for your nice post.
I am glad that I have so many sincere friends.
I love cooking, that is my passion.
Thanks again Lakme.
My dear friends, it was my dear friend DEV, who asked me to post
few recipes and pictures to her, so that she can post them in my absence.
I told her I have few recipes, but not the pictures.
I have no time to cook and take so many pictures.
Then I asked my niece who lives in US.
She agreed to cook and post with the pictures.
The recipes are mine and written in my style.
The cooking and pictures will be hers.
Thanks to Meerra again.

Shredded cabbage-1 cup
1 onion- sliced
Spring onion greens- a handful- roughly chopped
2 packet noodles- cook till done(in salted water) and immediately dip in cold water. Drain n keep aside.
Grind to a paste- 1 or 2 green chilly, 3 garlic cloves, 1 inch ginger
Grind separately- 1 tomato
Oil- 1 tbsp
ghee- 1 tbsp
salt
sugar- 1 tsp
pepper powder- 1/2 tsp
Aachi curry powder- 1/2 tsp or more depending on how spicy u want.
How to:
1. Heat a cast iron wok on high flame to smoking point and add the oil n ghee. Let it smoke.
2. Add the onions n g-g-g paste. Let the onions turn limp.
3. Add the beans n cabbage. Saute for 2 mins.

Match fixing:
Tomato sauce
Curd(lol). Yes, I like to have noodles with curd towards the end. Indian Ishtyle again...:rotfl:
Sorry, no pics this time. But trust me, it tastes really good. Nice n spicy n hot...mmmm...;) Go ahead n try it if u have aachi curry masala on hand. I've tried with few other masala powders but this I feel is the best for noodles.
You can add tomato sauce instead of tomato paste. In that case, add it towards the end(along with the noodles).
