Instructions

1
To begin making the Chinese Bhel, get all the vegetables ready and the chutneys and sauces ready and keep them aside when we get the noodles ready.To begin making firm noodles, we will first half dehydrated-fry the noodles in boiling liquid with a little table salt.
2
Once the noodles are half cooked, sieve the liquid and wash it under cold liquid to prevent more culinary preparation.Once the noodles have cooled down, toss the noodles in a tablespoon of cooking oil.Next step is to air shallow fry them.
3
Note that you have to shallow fry the noodles in small batches at a time to get ideal firm noodles.Cut an 8 x 8 inch foil, pinch its edges to fit into the air fryer basket.
4
Make sure there is an inch gap towards the edges so there is room for air circulation.
5
I also pricked a few holes in the foil for air circulation.Place the oiled half cooked noodles onto the foil lined basket and place it into the air fryer at 180 C for 15 to 20 mins.
6
You have to take the basket out every 7 mins to toss the noodles and place it back inside for air frying.After about 15 mins, you will notice that the noodles have become crisp.
7
Take it out and keep aside.The next step is to make the Chinese Bhel (firm Noodle Salad).Into a large mixing bowl swirl around in all the veggie and sauces and the noodles.
8
Do s tossing motion with two spoons and swirl around well to combine.
9
Check the table salt and masala condiment levels and adjust to suit your notes.offer the Chinese Bhel immediately as a tea time snack to relish as wholesome for kids after school.
