Description
A more nutritious, jazzed-up version of Indonesia’s classic favourite snack. Instant noodles that are easy to cook, cheap, full of carbs, and loaded with MSG – making them oh-so-addictive!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 packet Indomie soup noodles, your choice of flavour
- 1 handful of green leafy vegetable such as spinach, bok choy or broccoli
- 1 sausage, your choice, cut as you desire
- 1 hard boiled egg, peeled, cut in half if you desire
- Water
Instructions
- Prepare 1 medium bowl.
- Read the cooking instructions in the noodles package carefully.
- In a medium cooking pan, boil some water, and then blanch the vegetables for around 3 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to the bowl.
- Boil the instant noodles according to the instructions on the package.
- When the noodles are done, remove the water used to boil it and transfer the noodles to the bowl. Mix well with the veggies.
- Boil another batch of fresh water (the amount will depend on the instructions in the packaging), and then add the spices in the package.
- Stir until it gently boils, then add the sausage. Cook until done.
- Pour the soup on top of the noodles.
- Garnish with the boiled egg.
- If you wish, you can add some chilli flakes, sambal, freshly chopped bird’s eye chillies or anything which will fire up the noodles.
Notes
- For this recipe I used Indomie, a brand that is so popular it has become the generic term for instant noodles. Feel free to substitute it with other brands.
- Sausage can be substituted with meatballs or other processed meat.
