  2. You can cook noodles in above method or as per packet instructions.
  3. When noodles boiled to soft, drain the water and cool down with running cold water (this process will prevent noodles from overcooking and turning mushy).

    NOTES :
  1. Don't over cook noodles, 90% cooking is enough.
  2. If you have fear about noodles turning mushy, then after adding noodles to kadai, switch off the stove and gently mix the noodles using your hand. And when noodles mixes well with other ingredients, switch on the flame and heat for 1 minute.This way you can mix well without noodles turning mushy.

    HAPPY COOKING!!

Hi, Sea has lot of creatures in it that we can cook and we were much more unaware of many . Squid fish is one among the yummy species which I was totally unaware even after coming to Chennai.One day in market I saw them and surprised that they are selling octopus ( it looked like that to me :)).
