Questions like favorite color, favorite actor, and many more such ‘favorites’ and one of them was favorite food/cuisines. And most of us would have a common answer to that.. Chinese. Yes, we all loved Chinese food! I still feel that we Indians just adore Chinese food and in India, you can find at least one Chinese restaurant in every seven mile radius. Although, there are other cuisines as well but somehow, Chinese food has made a special place in our heart.
Even though I am saying Chinese, the restaurants in India mostly make Indo-Chinese dishes.. with tons of flavor. When I traveled to Beijing for the first time, that’s when I realized how different authentic Chinese dishes are and they both are amazing in their own way. Hakka Noodles is one of the most popular Indo-Chinese dish that you will find in every Chinese restaurant in India and it tastes so very comforting. An interesting fact that I learnt from internet today: Hakka is the term that refers to a certain community in China, who are basically settled in the province of Fujian. These people are very conservative and simple. A wide number of people moved to remote parts of the world to seek opportunities, established themselves and thus, lead to the spreading of Hakka culture, tradition and cuisine. First Hakka settlement started in Calcutta and that popularized this type of cuisine giving it an Indian touch and thus, it lead to the beginning of ”Indo-Chinese” version of these dishes.
It’s a quick and easy dish to make and you don’t really need any side dish with it : ) I used egg noodles and because I love egg so much, I used hard-boil eggs too.
