Mushroom and baby corn chilli garlic wai wai

This is not your usual elaborate fancy stuff. Just plain and simple comfort food when hunger strikes hard way into the wee hours of the night. I have the habit of cooking late at night, by which I mean after 1.30-2am. Mostly because it's quiet, serene and I get the entire kitchen all to myself. However, there are times when I don't feel like doing things from scratch and just want to add little touches to an already existing food item that takes the taste to a new level altogether. My mushroom baby corn chilli garlic Wai Wai is one such favourite. Substitute/ add sausages, salami, ham, chicken chunks, peas, sweet corn and you can play along with the flavours easily. You can twist this dish in so many ways...and every single one will guarantee brilliant results. If you don't trust me, try it for yourself and see!

P.S: Did I mention you can use maggi if you're not a wai wai fan?
