This vegetable dish is a mixed vegetable dish with glass noodles. The glass noodles are soft and soaks up the flavours of the vegetables. This is not served as a noodle dish but more common with rice and the ingredients can varies according to own preference. Quite similar to Lou Han Chye but not exactly the same as this is a family style kind of dish very common in most Chinese Hokkien family home. So here, I’m not giving the exact quantity of the ingredients used as you can mix and match them according to own preference.
Some Chinese families will cook this vegetarian dish on the first day of Chinese New Year, too.

Wish I can be your guest and have it now.
I have never heard of glass noodles, but it looks like something I would love to eat. Yum!
Hi Karen, OIC. Yes I thought about one day we will miss mom's cooking and recipes. This is the reason why I started writing this blog to record my mom's recipe and cooking in the earlier days of my blogging around 2010-2011. Hopefully, my family's future generations will refer here for their grandmother's recipes.
Hi Anne, time flies it is already the end of the month. Thanks for hosting this LTU event for us to share some tried and tested recipes on noodles and pasta.
Hi Cheryl, having this dish during CNY is a good choice when there are so many meat dishes cooked for CNY. Now, I do add several vegetarian dishes in CNY meals cos' several of my hubby's siblings are full time vegans.
Hi Alvin, this looks like an international dish cooked at places where there are Chinese people, hehehe!
Hi Aunty Young, it's a vegetable dish that can be eaten warm or cold and acceptable by many people.
Hi Cathleen, glass noodles are made from mung beans. It is soft, smooth and has no taste on its own but when cooked, it absorbs the flavours of other ingredients, seasonings and becomes very tasty.
Hi Kimmy,
