Broccoli stir-fry noodles

How do u decide what to cook everyday ? I usually do grocery/vegetable shopping every week... maybe 5 days or so... and pack my refrigerator with many vegetables and then I try to use those in the fridge with different recipes. For example, spinach --- can be cooked with lentils(dal) , chicken, parathas(flat-breads), as a salad or as a vegetable side by itself. I had bought 3 broccoli heads thinking I would make a soup out of it, but it is too hot to eat soup....so made a simple stir-fry recipe with noodles ....:)

It was a after-school meal for my kid, I had some boiled brown rice, so I made some Stir-fried rice for myself for dinner with the same combination.

Ingredients:

• 3 cloves garlic
  
• 1 small onion
• 80-100 gm chopped broccoli florets
• 1/3 cup frozen and defrosted corn
• 2 tbsp chopped red pepper
• 1 tsp fish sauce
• 1/2 tsp soya sauce
• 1 tsp oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 150 gm cooked and salted pasta/noodles(or egg noodles)
• sesame seeds to garnish (I din't use)
• 2 (or more) green chilies (optional, I din't use)

Recipe:

• Boil/cook the noodles/pasta according to the pack directions. Drain the water and keep them aside.
• Chop the broccoli to florets.
• Heat oil in a pan. Add garlic, chilies, onions and stir-fry on high heat till the onions are translucent.

• Add broccoli and frozen corn and stir-fry again for 3-4 minutes till the broccoli is cooked and the color deepens to bright green.

• I loved adding some red peppers for color. Cook again for a minute.

• Add seasonings -- fish sauce, soy sauce, salt and pepper.

• Finally, add noodles and keep stirring for another 3-4 minutes till everything is well mixed.

• Serve hot garnished with sesame seeds/boiled eggs.

• I made the same recipe with brown rice. 

• After the seasonings, add a cup of cooked brown rice and mix well stirring continuously on high heat. 

Quantity:

• 2 servings each for noodles and rice.

Notes:

• Can be made with other vegetables of your choice, but as the title is broccoli stir-fry.... do use broccoli as one of the vegetables :)
• Adding Tabasco sauce about a tsp or two in the end, gives it a nice spicy kick. 
• Omit fish sauce and increase soy sauce by 1/2 to 1 tsp, to make the recipe completely vegetarian.
• This is a picture of noodles I made long time back. I used mushrooms, prawns and broccoli. I have used egg noodles here.
