Indian Rice Noodles

  • 2 portions - thin rice noodles
  • 2 tbsp - sunflower oil
  • 1 tsp - cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp - mustard seeds
  • pinch - turmeric powder
  • pinch - coriander powder
  • 1 - jalepeno pepper, minced
  • Juice of 1/2 a lemon
  • salt to season
Boil water in a pan and add the rice noodles. Cook uncovered for 5-10 minutes until done but firm. Drain in a colander and run it through cold water to arrest further cooking.

Heat oil in a wok/pan and add the cumin seeds, mustard seeds, coriander powder and turmeric powder. Just when they begin to splutter, add the slit pepper and cover for a minute, reducing the heat.

Add the cooked noodles, and salt then stir-fry all these together until piping hot. Remove from heat and mix in the lemon juice.

Serve immediately with Roasted Cauliflower & Tomatoes.
