Thukpa

                                                              
                                                                              It is a Tibetan noodle soup generally served with chicken . But the vegetarian version is also enjoyable. Here I made the non veg version with both chicken and prawns.

Ingredients

  1. 250 g boneless chicken cut into small cubes
  2. A hand full of boiled egg noodles
  3. 100 g prawns
  4. 3 tbsp. chopped garlic
  5. 3 tbsp. chopped ginger
  6. 1 cup chopped onion
  7. 1 cup chopped green onion
  8. 1/2 cup chopper coriander leaves
  9. 3 cups of water
  10. 2 tbsp. soya sauce
  11. 4 tbsp. lime juice
  12. 1/4 tbsp. sugar
  13. 1 Maggie chicken cube (optional )
  14. 3 tbsp. olive oil
  15. salt to taste
                                                                        Heat the olive oil in a pan now add the chicken pieces in it . Fry in a low heat unless the chicken turns brownish . Now add the onions and saute for few minutes . Once the onion turns pink add chopped ginger followed by the garlic . Saute for a while and add the prawns . After a while add the water and cook it for 15 mins in low flame and lid on. Once it is done add the soya sauce , lemon juice , sugar and salt . Cook for few more minutes and add the chicken cube followed by  the green onion and coriander leaves . Now add the noodles . Cook for just 1 minute . Now serve it in a soup boul garnish with boiled noodles and chopped coriander on top .
