Ingredients
1 small onion
1 piece fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic
½ red chilli
2 carrots
150g of dried noodles
a dash sesame or sunflower oil
handful of peas
ÂĽ tbsp mild Madras curry powder
1 tbsp soya sauce
Method
Very carefully chop the onion into small cubes. Grate about an inch of the ginger and crush the garlic. Keep these all on your chopping board so they are ready to use when you need them.
Cut the chilli up very small. Chili peppers are spicy especially before they are cooked. Be careful to wash your hands well after handling them so you do not get any chilli into your eye.
Ask an adult to help you to put your noodles into a pot of boiling water. Cook them for the length of time mentioned on the packet. There are different types of noodles so following the packet will give you best results. Ask for help draining them when they are cooked.
Soya sauce is salty so when you are making this dish you do not need to add any salt. Heat a dash of oil in a big saucepan or a wok if you have one. Be very careful and sauté (gently fry) the onion and carrot first. Add your ginger, garlic and chilli and stir this in then add your peas and curry powder. Stir in your noodles and add the soya sauce making sure all of the ingredients mix well together.
