Stuffed Buns

Pizza/Bread dough - Refer to my pizza recipe
Potato Peas masala - Refer to my Aloo Matar recipe
Egg - 1/ Milk - 4 tbsp

Optional toppings (Just to make them look pretty :))
Jalapeno - 1
Shredded cheese - 1/2 cup
Black pepper/Red pepper flakes - 1 tsp

Mix the pizza dough according to the recipe. Else, use fresh store bought bread or pizza dough. Here in the US, we can buy fresh whole wheat pizza dough, at most grocery stores and super markets. This makes baking pizzas and other such dishes, really easy to make.
Prepare the potato fry, or any other stuffing of your choice. I made the potato fry from my previous post, just made it nutritious, by adding a bunch of chopped spinach along with the onions.
Take a golf ball size of the dough. Spread it with your hands and place some of the stuffing in the center. Close the edges, and form into a ball again. This process is similar to how we make parathas, before rolling them out.
Place the stuffed dough balls on a baking sheet. Whisk an egg, and brush it on the dough. Else, use milk. (This helps the buns turn a lovely golden brown)
Top with thinly sliced Jalapeno, a sprinkle of cheese and pepper.
Bake in a pre-heated 425F oven for about 12 to 15 min, until they are golden brown on top.

Serve hot with ketchup, hot sauce or any chutney of your choice.

Singapore street noodles

This is an adaptation of the dish from Lao Schezwan, a really popular Chinese restaurant from China town, Chicago. It's one of my favorite dishes to order there. I don't know how the real street noodles in Singapore taste like, but this is a pretty good dish, none the less.

Rice noodles - 1 packet (10 oz)

Chicken/shrimp/tofu - 1/2 lb

Red pepper - 1

Jalapeno - 1

Onion - 1

Garlic - 2 cloves

Ginger - 1 inch

Oil - 1 tbsp

Salt - to taste

Red chili powder - 1 tsp

Turmeric - 1 tsp

Curry powder - 1 tbsp

Soak the rice noodles in water for 15 to 20 min (or according to instructions on the pack). Drain and reserve.

Slice thinly, the onions, jalapenos, ginger, garlic and red pepper. I used chicken here. Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces. Heat the oil in a pan or a wok, and add the chicken, ginger and garlic. When the chicken is cooked, add the vegetables and cook till they are tender. Add the salt, and the turmeric, chili and curry powders. Stir well and add the noodles. Mix well, garnish with lemon and serve.
