Veg Schezwan Noodles with Homemade Schezwan Sauce

I love Chinese Food. The Soy sauce, Vinegar, Spring Onion's and a bit of ajina-motto all do a great magic to the simple noodles or rice. When I craved for some spicy noodles, i decided to make this schezwan noodles. Though I had all other sauces in hand, schezwan sauce was missing. i googled and gathered bits and pieces from various recipe's and prepared the sauce.

Hi, discovered your blog while googling for veggie schezuan noodles. Tried it out today and loved it, but made a few minor adjustments to the sauce - added green chillies along with the red ones and added a good bit of ginger as well. It was yummy!! Thanks
