Ingredients:
Serves: 2
Preparation Time: 45 minutes
Preparation Method:
- Heat up 2 cups of water. Once it comes to boil, add in vermicelli and cook it for a minute or two. Keep them Al-dente (slightly undercooked). Or cook them according to the instructions on the packet.
- Strain out all the water, transfer all the vermicelli onto a plate and spread them out evenly, so that it cools down and the strands don’t stick to each other.
- Chop capsicums into thin long strips. Heat 2-3 tablespoons of oil in a wok, add in sliced capsicum, salt and saute them. (Salt fastens it’s cooking). Cook them closed until it’s half cooked, so that you get a nice crunch with every bite in the end. Occasionally saute them to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Chop onions into thin slices and fry them in another wok using 2-3 tablespoons of oil and salt to fasten it’s cooking. Saute occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Cook until it’s almost cooked and translucent.
- Transfer fried onions onto a plate. Add in finely chopped tomatoes into the wok. Fry them using salt until they sweat and start to form a paste. Then add in 1-2 tablespoons of oil to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Once tomato forms a nice paste, add about 1/4 cup of water and mix well.
- Then add in sambar powder, cumin powder, red chilli powder, slit green chillies, turmeric powder and mix them well.
- Let it cook for a minute to remove rawness of the powders. Then add in fried capsicum & onions and mix them well.
- Then add in cooked vermicelli and mix it well with other ingredients. Let it simmer for a minute or two so that it takes up all the flavours.
- Serve hot as-is or with tomato ketchup.
