Hoisin Chicken Noodles

Hoisin Chicken Noodles ~ Simple Food


There are many different kinds of noodle available and all of them are pretty much suitable for this dish.

I like to buy fresh noodles but you have to use them more or less straight away, although you can buy dried noodles which last for ages the next best thing to fresh in my opinion is “straight to wok” noodles which come packed with a good few months expiry date.
