How to roast vermicelli?

I have used Roasted Vermicelli in making this recipe. But, if you are using unroasted vermicelli, then first add tbsp. of oil to a pan and fry vermicelli. Fry on low flame by continuously stirring until vermicelli turns light golden brown. Turn off the flame and remove it on to a plate and set aside till use.

How to make Chicken Fry?

I have used leftover chicken fry in this vermicelli recipe. If using fresh chicken, try using boneless chicken cubes. Wash chicken cubes thoroughly and marinate with red chili powder, turmeric powder, ginger-garlic paste and salt. Set aside for 10 minutes. In a pan heat oil and fry the chicken pieces till they are soft and succulent. Remove and set aside till use.
