Chicken Noodle

Several days ago, I read a note by my ex-lecturer in Indonesia. The title was "A Simple Chicken Noodle". The recipe looked easy, so I tried to make one.. with a few modifications following my personal taste.. hehehe.. This recipe is for 2 people.

* Sorry if the appearance doesn't look good, but I'm telling you the taste is good. ^_^

Ingredients:

• 2 chicken breasts (about 300 gr), chopped in small dices
• 200 gr egg noodle
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 3 cm ginger, peeled
• 3 stalks spring onions, minced
• 1 tbsp tomato sauce
• 1 tbsp sweet soy sauce
• 1 tsp pepper
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil or butter
• salt and sugar

Method:

1. Boil the egg noodle until well cooked, set aside.
2. Put garlic and ginger into a food processor, blend them well with a little of water.
3. Heat the vegetable oil (or butter) and fry the mix of garlic and ginger until it smells good.
