Stir Fried Animal Pasta

I was in KL after Christmas to visit a few good, old friends and naturally, shopping is part of the agenda of the trip. Surprisingly, we didn't buy any clothes or bags or shoes but we filled our shopping bags with foodie from Marks & Spencer. Hahaha....That's where I 'discovered' these cute little pasta. It costs much more than normal pasta but I couldn't resist buying these!!! These are whole wheat pasta and if you have not tried it, you might not like the 'rough' texture of the pasta but the cute animal shapes compensated for the taste ;p

Although it seems to be good for kids but I think mothers might run into the problem of having to feed them for hours to finish their meal. Kids are a curious lot and they might spend their own sweet time trying to figure out the animal shape of the pasta. Hohoho...

Say....can you spot the horse in this pic??
