There are some people I know who prefer to have noodles for their mail meal. While most Chinese must have rice for lunch and dinner or they will feel lethargic, a handful will prefer noodles or porridge, just something lighter, especially when the weather is hot.

Here is just the perfect noodle recipe called Fragrant Glass Noodles. If glass noodle is difficult to get your hands on, you could substitute it with rice noodles, I guess. The following recipe will require 45 minutes to prepare and cook, quite lengthy but worth it. It will serve four persons.

Let me know how this recipe turns out for you!
