Veg Hakka Noodles Recipe
Veg Hakka Noodles is an Indo-Chinese preparation that is made by tossing boiled noodles and stir fried vegetables in Chinese sauces. The vegetables give it an enjoyable crunchy texture and the Soy and Chilli sauces give it a distinctive flavor.
This dish is very popular across all of India and is often served in Indian Restaurants or in parties. Spicy variations of this are often sold by street vendors as chowmein.
Veg Hakka Noodles are also quite healthy since they are loaded with veggies and very little oil goes into their preparation. I have added onions, colored Bell Peppers (Capsicum), Cabbage, Carrots and Spring Onions to this dish. You can make them even healthier by using whole wheat noodles.
Vegetable Hakka Noodles are generally eaten on their own, but some people prefer to have it with some side dish. You can serve them with Veg Manchurian or Gobi Manchurian.

Step By Step Instructions for Veg Hakka Noodles Recipe
- Boil 2 cups of water in a vessel. Add 1 teaspoon Oil in the water which will prevent the noodles from sticking to each other. Also add a pinch of Salt so that it gets absorbed in the noodles while cooking. Add the noodles to the water and cook them according to the instructions on the pack till they are tender. When the noodles are cooked, drain the hot water and place them in a colander. Lightly hand toss them to separate the noodle strands and run the noodles under cold water to stop the cooking process, so the noodles do not become mushy.
- You can prepare the gravy while the noodles are cooking. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok (kadhai). Add grated Garlic & finely chopped Green Chillies and fry them.
- Then add thinly sliced Onions and colored Bell Peppers (Capsicum). Also add shredded Cabbage and Carrots along with chopped Spring Onion whites.
- Toss the vegetables lightly for a few minutes, stir frying them on high heat till they are cooked but still crunchy. Do not cook overcook the vegetables.
- Add Soy Sauce, Vinegar, Green Chilli Sauce and Red Chilli Sauce. Also add Black Pepper Powder and Salt to taste. Toss lightly to mix the sauces with the vegetables.
- Add boiled noodles to the vegetables and toss to coat the noodles. You can use 2 forks to mix the noodles so that they don't get smushed.
