Indo Chinese lunch menu with noodles, paneer chilli dry and a dessert mango sago.
After a weekly shopping, I wanted to make a different from my usual south Indian lunch menu, so asked Vj what to make.
He suggested hakka noodles and chilli paneer dry. So I did the same with his favorite mango sago dessert.
Though noodles wont be that filling, when paired with paneer side dish, it will sure be filling and the mango sago dessert will make the meal complete.
Since mango season has started, I got few ripe Banganapalli mangoes from Mustafa yesterday and thought of making this dessert today. Its very easy too, so made this weekend.
Instructions
Recipe Cuisine: Oriental/ Indian | Recipe Category: Lunch
Prep Time: 1 Hr 30 mins | Cook time: 1 Hr | Serves: 3
- Soak sago 1 hr before you are going to cook. I first prepared the dessert and kept refrigerated. Its better to make the dessert first and keep it in the fridge as it is supposed to be taken cold.
- Finely chop some ripe mangoes for mango sago and keep it refrigerated too.
- Chop veggies for hakka noodles, spring onion, capsicum for both hakka noodles and chilli paneer. Keep all the other ingredients like coriander leaves, spring onion for garnish.
- Meanwhile you can side by side boil water and cook noodles, keep aside.
- Heat oil and prepare batter for deep frying paneer cubes. Deep fry and keep aside.
- First prepare hakka noodles and keep in a hot pack.
- Then toss chilli paneer and serve hot your family as these are supposed to be consumed hot. Lastly treat your family with the dessert, with freshly chopped mangoes.
Simple lunch with hakka noodles, chilli paneer dry and mango sago dessert.

Saw ur post in the Mango Sago recipe saying that ur husb will eat wat you cook and has no special expectations... It is destiny which makes good (touch wood! ) couples who are complete opposites!
I am sure another couple where a husb wants to eat everything, and the wife doesnt want to make variety at all are also happy with each other !!
Loved this menu...

Hi Raks! I have tried many of your recipes but never posted any comment. I am really sorry. My daughter urges me to post a comment whenever I try your recipe. Right from Kaarasev, Badhusha, hakka noodles, chilli paneer, I have tried many of your recipes and to my surprise all turned out well. No failure at all. It is all because of your perfect measurement and step wise pictures. A special thanks to you!!!
