Since our vegetables are limited to what the people around us grow, this can lead to interesting combinations.  I am fortunate that I have two eager sous chefs to help me slice and dice.<\/p>\n<p>First start your water for the noodles boiling.  We use &#8220;Maggi&#8221; or &#8220;angel hair spaghetti&#8221; type noodles.  Follow the directions on the package.<\/p>\n<p>Then grab a handful of greens.  We like a green called aupa which we think the English name is amaranth.  Then starting with the stems all together start chopping.  Dice spring onions, peeled cucumbers, ginger, garlic.  Heat 1 Tablespoon of oil in the skillet and start adding the veggies.  We supplement with canned vegetables when we can&#8217;t get enough fresh ones: water chestnuts for crunch, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, mushrooms, mixed Asian vegetables &#8212; drain and add.<\/p>\n<p>When we first started this dish, we would use the flavoring packets from the noodles.  But we discovered a new flavor enhancer that is now a family favorite: oyster sauce.  Just a Tablespoon or two while the vegetables are cooking, then add soy-sauce to taste.  When noodles are finished cooking add to the vegetables, and you are ready to serve!  Yum!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1079\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1079\" style=\"width: 296px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1079\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rick-zook\/files\/2011\/09\/bush-cooking-296x300.jpg\" alt=\"Anj prepares lunch with her two sous chefs.\" width=\"296\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rick-zook\/files\/2011\/09\/bush-cooking-296x300.jpg 296w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rick-zook\/files\/2011\/09\/bush-cooking.jpg 336w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 296px) 100vw, 296px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1079\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anj prepares lunch with her two sous chefs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of our quick family meal is stir-fried vegetables with noodles.
