I first tasted soba noodle salad in a popular eatery in Bandra and instantly fell in love with it. Since then, I have been wanting to try it so finally made this super delicious and colourful Soba noodle salad with Asian dressing at home. Meals like this are my favourite! Super fresh, delicious, quick, easy, lots of vegetables and tons of nutrition. So so good!! Soba noodles are made from buckwheat flour or "kuttu". Buckwheat is a grain which is gluten-free and a healthy alternative to wheat. It is used in India during fasting to make kuttu poori or pakora. Its a rich source of protein which is easy to digest too. It helps in lowering blood pressure and reduces cholesterol. Low in calories, buckwheat is used a lot in Japanese cuisine in the form of these Soba noodles. This salad is a perfect weekday meal and gets ready in literally 15 minutes. Nutty buckwheat noodles paired with crunchy vegetables and spicy dressing, I can have it everyday for lunch/dinner! ...

As far as restaurant industry in India is concerned, there are phases. There was a phase when people just wanted to eat Chinese especially spring rolls and veg manchurian. These two dishes were included in the starter section in most of the restaurants. These days there is a craze of Italian and Mexican food in India. All that people want to eat is pizza, pasta, sizzler, nachos and tacos in restaurants. Honestly sometimes it does get sickening eating the same food again and again. So the point being if you get bored of eating the same food outside and miss Chinese, then dish up these basic and very simple dishes without having them to order from outside. Trust me you will save lot of money and it won't be very harsh on your stomach. This recipe is as simple as it gets. It's super healthy and packed with veggies.

It has a very distinctive flavor which can be brought about by adding just little butter or olive oil. You can use mushrooms in sandwich filling, pizza, pasta,soups,stir-fry.  Mushrooms particularly increase the strength of your immune system.

Mushrooms hardly take 5 mins to cook( almost effortless). Stir-fry is a popular method in China which is quick and preserves natural crunch in vegetables.
