My kids love Chinese and also bhel. Hence this is an all time favourite at my home. Whenever I make noodles, I cook some extra to make Chinese Bhel.

It remains crunchy even after long time, hence can be packed in lunch boxes.

Noodles can be fried and stored ahead of time, so it is very nice idea for parties.
