Who else loves noodles? 👋🏼Â
Â
“Chow Mein” in a Chinese noodle dish and it literally translates to “stir-fried noodles” . This dish usually consists of fried noodles with shredded meat & vegetables but I have made my own healthified vegan version using a savoury Vegie Mince that I got from the chilled vegetarian section at my local supermarket (I used the brand Vegie Delights for anyone who wanted to know)
Â
I’ve also added a twist by incorporating curry powder into the sauce which makes this ultra moreish!

Here is the recipe:
