Indian Style Chow-mein

Chow-mein brings me back to my hostel days in 11th and 12th class. It was then I got introduced to chow-mein. When we wanted to treat ourselves, we would either have Maggi or chaow-mein depending on the money. If our money has just come from home, we would request Shaukat bhai to bring us chow-mein. If we were low on money, Shaukat bhai would get us Maggi and we would lit fire with "waste" papers and cook Maggi there!!!!! Those were the days!!!!

Anyway, here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
Half packet chow-mein noodles (I buy it from Asian store here)
2 tbsp oil
2 tbsp soya sauce
1/2 tbsp vinegar
1 cup chopped veggies (I used Asian style frozen veggies)
2-3 green chillies chopped
salt to taste
1-2 tsp chilli sauce
1 onion, cut in pieces

In a pan bring water to boil. Put noodles in it. Let it boil until noodles are tender.
Once done, drain water.
In a wok, heat oil. When oil is smoking, put veggies, onion and chillies. Saute them for 3-4 minutes. Add salt. Add noodles and stir well. Serve hot with Gobhi Manchurian.
