Indian style Chinese noodles

Noodles - my favorite dish and Chinese - my favorite cuisine. When I decided to make noodles for lunch my mom and sis looked bored cause according to them Chinese delicacies taste plain !!! I decided to make it the way they like - hot and spicy .So here goes an Indo-Chinese dish - Spicy Garlic Noodles .
Ingredients:
Plain noodles -200gms
Onions - 2 Medium -thinly sliced
Carrots -3 to 4 - thinly sliced
Capsicum-3 - thinly sliced (to make it more colorful , you can use colored capsicum )
Ginger Garlic paste -1/2 spoon
Tomato ketchup - 1 to 2 spoons or as per taste
Soy sauce -  2 tea spoon
Ajinomoto ,salt - as per taste
Oil - As required

Chili paste:

In a bender, grind 2 green chillies ,2 small onions (sambar vengayam) and 2 garlic cloves .

Method:

• Boil the noodles(with a pinch of salt and a little oil added to the water) till the noodles becomes soft. Oil prevents the noodles from getting sticky.

• Drain excess water , wash noodles with cold water and set it aside.
• In a pan or wok , add oil and once it smokes add the onions .
• Sauté the onions for 3 mins and add ginger garlic paste.
• Sauté for another 3 mins and add the chili paste.
• Once the raw smell (smell from ginger garlic paste) vanishes add the sliced carrots and capsicum and keep tossing on high flame(else they get burned ).
• Add soy sauce,ajinomoto,salt and then the boiled noodles.
• Finally add tomato ketchup and mix well.
• Toss for 2 more minutes and serve hot :)
