Directions

1. In a large pot bring 4 to 5 cups of water to boil. Add salt and 1 teaspoon oil. Then add the Chinese noodles and cook as per the instructions on the noodles packet. Cook noodles to al dente. I cooked my noodles for 2 minutes. Immediately drain water completely and toss 1/2 teaspoon oil in the cooked noodles. This will ensure they wont stick together

2. In a large pan, heat remaining oil. When the oil is hot, add chopped garlic and fry for few seconds

3. Then add  red chilli flakes, cilantro leaves , spring onion Greens and fry for a minute

4. Add noodles and toss gently
