Atho,a Burmese food also a popular street food in India.Atho is nothing but cooked plain noodles mixed and served with fresh raw vegetables.Orange colored noodles are used in making Atho,I have used plain noodles with orange food color.Many are addicted to these Burmese food nowadays including my family members.Two things that is very annoying about this Atho are they are prepared in unclean,dirty places and the veggies are raw and exposed to lot of contamination and pollution.
So I started trying this recipe at home but didnt get it right until I visited some few Atho places in Chennai with my husband.Finally after so many attempts got this recipe perfect which I would like to share today in my blog.I have excluded ajinomotto from this ,but if you would like to add just add a pinch of it.So do try this recipe at home under hygienic condition with clean fresh veggies.
