Simple Fried Pasta




This fried pasta dish is sort of a "rojak" kind of dish...... not really western, not really eastern, and is one of the scavanger dishes I put together most often. Basically put in whatever you like or whatever's in the fridge :p

Ingredients:
3 small handfuls of uncooked pasta
minced garlic
onion, diced
carrot, cut into small cubes
tomato, diced
minced meat
light soya sauce
tomato sauce
chili sauce
black pepper
dried oregano (optional)
cooking oil
1) Cook pasta in boiling water for about 14 minutes, or as instructions on packet. Drain and put aside
2) Season minced meat with some light soya sauce and black pepper
3) To prepare the sauce, add tomato sauce, chili sauce, light soya sauce, black pepper, dried oregano and some water to a bowl. Mix well.
4) Heat up some oil in a wok/pan. Add in garlic and onions and fry until fragrant. Add in tomato, carrots and the seasoned minced meat, fry until meat is cooked. Pour in the prepared sauce from step 3 and let simmer for a while. Add more water if necessary.
5) Add pasta to the wok/pan and toss until well coated/mixed with the other ingredients and it's ready to be served!
