Stir Fry Pasta for Breakfast

I managed to cook a simple dishes late last nite. Refrigerated after a while on the unfired stove. Of course it has been stir fried/cooked. But as usual can't seems to remember the name of the pasta. I think it is called Bucatini...For what ever it is I am happy because Alya liked it. She packed some to school for later. I also brought some to office. Suprisingly they all likes it too...hehehehe...furthermore they have asked me for the recipe...so here it is:-

Stir Fry Bucatini

Half packed of Bucatini
6 cups of water
1 table spoon of salt
(Pour the water and salt into a pot. Turn the heat. Pour in the Bucatini and cook until you can pinch and break it easily. Rinse it with cold water to stop the cooking process in the Bucatini.)


5 cloves of garlic - diced it thinly
A bunch of green spinach/choy sum(sawi) - chop it coursely like a tiny ribbon strip
5 Dried Shitakea Mushroom (soak it in water about 1/2hr - can subsitutes it with fresh ones. Slice it thinly after soaking and turn big in size.
1/2 a cup of chicken stock/vegetable stock
1 teaspoonfull of dried chili flakes
A pinch of dried thyme
A pinch of dried parsley
A pinch of salt & pepper to taste
1 tablespoonfull of olive oil
(Heat the pan with olive oil. When it is hot stir in garlic, chili flakes, mushroom and cooked until the garlic caramalized. Pour in the chicken stock, Bucatini and the chop vegetable. Stir evenly until a bit sticky and dry. Springkle it with the dried herbs, salt & pepper. Turn off the heat and let it seat for a while.)

You can served it cold or warm. As an extra mile...just sprinkle it with parmesan cheese and pre heat it for few seconds in the microwave oven....enjoy...
