Bread Noodles (With Step-wise pictures)

Bread Noodles

Another kids friendly recipe.. Bread Noodles... yes!!! Noodles from Bread.. I have heard, many of my friends saying that their kids don't eat Whole meal bread because they don't like its taste.. Both white bread and whole meal bread has only same calories but whole meal bread is  very high in nutrition.. 

Actually whole wheat grain  has three layers. All purpose flour or Maida is prepared only with the inner part of the grain after removing the other two outer layers,, whereas whole meal flour is prepared by grinding the whole grain , without removing any outer layers. 

Tried preparing noodles out of whole meal bread.. it turned out super.. I used Indian spices for this noodles,, but if you want chinese flavor, can avoid Indian spices and use soya sauce and tomato ketchup instead.

You can try the recipe with white bread too..
