One
of the most common street foods we find in India (not china I presume!). I
remember me and my cousins getting this parceled from the corner Chinese van as
a kid, and devouring the huge plates as we played Mario and Contra on our
little master games! In those days, we used to get a huge bowl for just Rs 20. Today
we don’t get equally good stuff I believe even for 200 in most restaurants. So
why not try it at home? Where you can add all your favorite fresh ingredients
and spice it up just the way you like. Once you’ve tried this at home, I promise
you’ll think before ordering from outside! (unless of course you’ve no time to
cook) I make this with chicken sausages so it’s really quick. You can also
choose to add crispy fried chicken or boiled chicken if choosing to cut down
some calories.
