Method
1. Boil the noodles as directed on the pack. Drain the water. Rinse and mix 2 teaspoon oil and keep aside.
2. Rinse and cut the broccoli into small florets.
3. Clean, rinse and chop the mushrooms. I have used small mushrooms so I made them half.

5. In a bowl mix soya sauce, tomato sauce or ketchup, sriracha sauce, vinegar and black pepper powder.
6. Heat oil in a wok. Add sliced onion, minced garlic and chopped green chilli. Fry till onion becomes light brown.
7. Now add the mushrooms and mix. Mushrooms will release water. Saute till dried up.
