Its upto you what meat you use or if you use it at all. Vegetable chowmein with a dash of sesame oil will taste equally good. Serve it with a gravy item and wow your audience with this delectable and beautiful recipe. Yes beautiful…when you give the finishing touches with sesame seeds, you will remember what I said

Egg noodle – 1 packet of 100 gms
Chicken breast – shredded finely – 100 gms
Broccoli florets – 60 gms
Garlic flake – 1 No. (sliced)
Ginger – 1 inch piece – finely chopped
Onion – 1 No sliced

Red wine / sherry – 1 tbsp
Soy sauce – 1 tbsp

3. Heat oil in a wok and add garlic, ginger, chicken and onion and stir fry for 2 minutes until the chicken strips are sealed and onions are tender.

Tip: to make it look more colorful, use a red capsicum (bell pepper). Red along with green broccoli and cream babycorn looks stunning!
