Home Style Nissin Noodles

Fancy name for instant noodles, this. This is a quick instant noodle dish. It beats the hell out of having plain instant noodles, and it definitely rivals those available at Char Chan Tengs! This is particularly useful when cooking for one person!

Matching the flavour of the instant noodles with that of vegetables is not as easy as people think! The chemicals used in the preparation of the soup gives it an unnatural flavour which is hard to match with fresh, virgin vegetables.

Thankfully, most of these chemically induced soups have tomatoes in one form or the other, i.e. colouring, acidity or just plain flavouring. In this little dish, I am adding in tomatoes to Curry flavoured instant noodles. It works remarkably well, giving the curry flavour nice acidity. Cabbages have a neutral flavour and yet add sweetness, and works well too, but in this picture I did not add cabbages.

Recipe:
Pack of Curry flavour instant noodles (I used Maggi Curry Instant Noodles)
1 Tomato
Cabbage (If desired)
Sliced Fish Cake (another Chinese staple for noodles)
Ham
Fried Egg

Cook noodles as per instruction. Add the tomatoes in as early as possible with the noodles.Cook the egg pan fry the sliced fish cake and pan fry the ham separately. When noodles are almost done, add in the cabbage. Lastly, combine the ingredients. Pour out the noodles, arrange the fish cake, egg and ham on top, and voila! Done.
