About Schezwan Noodles
Schezwan Noodles take their name from China's Sichuan province, but the dish is Indo-Chinese rather than a faithful copy of anything cooked there. It comes from the hybrid cuisine the Hakka Chinese community built in India, and the so-called Schezwan style is louder, spicier, and sweeter than the Sichuan original it is loosely named after. At BHARAT in Huai Khwang we wok-toss thin Hakka egg noodles with onion, capsicum, cabbage, and carrot in a bright red Schezwan paste that we make ourselves from soaked dried red chillies, plenty of fresh garlic, ginger, a hint of vinegar for tang, and a touch of sugar.
That paste is the whole point of the dish, and it makes these noodles genuinely spicy, with a bold chilli-and-garlic punch driving every mouthful. Because the sauce is house-made, our Uttarakhand-born head chef Santosh Shah can cut the amount back to bring it down to a medium heat if you prefer. The contrast with our plain Hakka Noodles is stark: those are mild and savoury, while these are fiery and assertive, the most heat-forward noodle on the menu.
The kitchen is halal-friendly and keeps no pork, though bone-in or boneless chicken can be added to this dish on request for those who want it. Do note that while the standard recipe has no peanuts, nuts are used in the kitchen, so flag any severe allergy. These work well as a main course by themselves, and because they are already well-seasoned and hot, they sit best beside milder gravies or a dry appetiser rather than another spicy dish piled on top of the same heat.
Two minutes walk from Grand Mercure Bangkok Atrium; free parking at the Bangchak gas station right next door.
The rest of the vegetarian cooking — dals, sabzis, paneer, the thalis — is on our vegetarian menu, and the halal page explains the sourcing behind all of it. It sits in our Fried Rice & Noodles menu, and regulars often order it alongside Paneer Butter Masala.
