Estimated reading time: 3 minutes The flavours of this Indian Chinese Chaat are quite balanced and have the right amount of sweetness along with the spiciness. It is truly a kaleidoscope of colours with a truckload of crispy fried noodles, vegetables, and bold sweet chilli sauce. Snacks like this fried noodle chaat add so much variety to the appetizer menu. It is always on my list of best Indo-Chinese party recipes. The popular Indo-Chinese cuisine barely has any salads. So whenever you think of interesting side dishes to serve with the other appetizers this fried noodle salad or the Chinese Chicken Salad is a fantastic choice.
Meal Prep Tips for Chinese Bhel
The quickest and easiest way to make this Chinese Bhel in a flick of a second is to fry a large batch of noodles and store them.
Make Crispy Noodles in advance: You can keep the crispy noodles in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 week. They remain equally crunchy and fresh. Usually, when I am planning to make crispy noodles chaat for parties, fried noodles are prepared 1 – 2 days in advance. Prepare Sweet Chilli Sauce: For flavouring the Chinese Bhel I use homemade sweet chilli sauce. It is a flavour bomb. You can make the sweet chilli sauce 1 week before and store it in the refrigerator for months.
Last minute, toss the noodles in seasoning along with chopped vegetables. And a delicious party snack is ready in less than 20 minutes.
Ways To Use Fried Noodles
