Noodles Frankie


A new twist to the traditional frankie. My kids love it. They both love noodles and then if I wrap them into a frankie it makes it even more fun for the kids.

 Ingredients:

For The Stuffing
  • Very thin noodles
  • 1 cup cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 Onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 Dikon, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup carrot, thinly sliced (make very thin strings)
  • 1 small bunch of spring onions, diced
  • 1/2 cup capsicum, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp oil
  • 1 tsp ginger paste
  • 1 tsp garlic paste
  • 2 green chilies, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 tsp Honey
  • 1/2 tsp Chilli Sauce
  • salt to taste
For Frankie Wrap
  • Cooked or uncooked thin flour tortillas

Method: 


  1. Boil around 4 cups of water and cook noodles as per instructions given on the packet. Once noodles are done, drain the hot water and immediately add cold water.
  2. Heat oil into a pan. Add ginger-garlic paste, and green chilies. Saute for 30 seconds. Then add capsicum, carrot, dikon, onion and cabbage. Also add the soy sauce, chili sauce, honey and salt to taste. Mix well. Stop cooking the mixture because we need the vegetables to remain crispy. 
  3. Add the noodles and toss well. Transfer the mixture into another bowl. Do not keep the mixture in the hot pan, because noodles amy become sticky.
  4. Roast a tortilla on both sides over a heated tava.
  5. Spread a good portion of the stuffing at the center of the tortilla. Wrap the stuffing by pulling in the two sides. Press with a spatula. 
  6. Serve hot with a dipping sauce made of soy sauce, hot sauce and Sweet & sour sauce.
Tip:
To make the above recipe Kids friendly, do not add chili sauce and green chili, instead, use tomato ketchup.
