- The first step is to prepare everything you need before starting the actual so for example get out a chopping board, a knife, etc.
- Then you need to pick out the vegetables you want the vegetables you pick is optional, our team decided on onions, mushrooms, cauliflowers, and carrots. - You then need to cut vegetables like carrots or celery into juliennes. Which is usually the size of match sticks the thinner it is the faster it cooks. The other you can cut them how you like.
- At the same time or after you can start to prepare the chicken, you need to make sure the chicken is defrosted. One you know it is defrosted the best way to cut the chicken is in strips. We then put it into a glass bowl it is better to use a glass bowl than a plastic bowl because the smell sticks onto plastic. With marinating it you can decide on anything, but we used sesame oil. One of our team members did that while I was cutting the vegetables.
- After that you can start boiling water in a separate pot, while that water is boiling you can start sauteing the onions and chicken. It's best to add the onion in first then the chicken, do this till it's brown.
- Once the water has started to boil break up a packet of noodles and add it in you do not need to add the seasonings if you don't want to.
- While the noodles were cooking we noticed the chicken started to go brown, but it was not fully cooked. So we just decided to put the vegetables in, after the noodles were cooked we drained it and added into the pan. While it was
- It took around 15 - 20 minutes for everything to cook, but half an hour to do everything. - while the food was finishing up we just decided to start cleaning up, so we could multi-task.

Well written Rieya. I agree with your comments the noodles were not the best to use in this recipe. Do you think it could be more colourful, what vegetables could you put in to make it more colourful?
