This is a simple recipe which can be cooked with no fuss- Ah, the hard part is chopping the vegetables...Especially, when someone like me becomes over ambitious and tries to add all known vegetables to mankind :P
Jokes apart, stir fry noodles can be made without much fuss and you can be super creative with it-
