Yep! I went through my phase with ramen. Great stuff! I think it was like 37 cents a bag back when I used to eat them for every meal. Even though I still like them, I try not to eat them now becasue of their really high sodium content. Not good for me having high blood pressure and all.

If I remeber correctly, one bag is equal to about 50% daily intake of sodium. If I didn't have to watch my salt intake, I'd still be eating them like crazy. :hyper:
 
very much a staple of the less financial people (ie Uni Students and kids) in Australia, and hey! they're tasty. Here they are called 2-minute noodles and cost about $0.50.

I use a very nice organic brand which cost quite a bit more, but for cooking dishes like Nasi-Goreng etc, you can't substitute them.

I am a very keen cook. I work in event hospitality so I see a heck of a lot of produce on the market, and Asian cookery is very prevalent in Australia.

And yes, those in the picture are over-cooked. :D
 
Sorry, I meant to add something valuable to the thread! Doh!

Ok, you can always "dress up" noodles.

First thing is to get some onions, diced finely, into a shallow pan with some hot oil going. cook and stir constantly until the onions are brownish/clear. Add some lovely chopped Asian vege's (carrot, brocolli, spring onion/shallot, baby corn)
and some soy sauce.

Now, at this stage, adding the (boiled) noodles will give you a very tasty and decent vegetarian meal.

To turn this meal into a Nasi Goreng, you can cook off some diced or minced beef in another (small) amount of oil in a very hot pan for only a minute or so. Add to the above recipe and stir, whet lips and devour!!

Wine selection : Crisp new Sauvignon Blanc

Enjoy

...think you mean MEE goreng. "Nasi" is Bahasa Indonesian for rice, "goreng" is fry, therefore fried rice. Mee would be noodles....In any case a dash of the sweet Indonesia soy sauce "kecap manis" makes things that much more authentic...
 
Man, memories, not necesscarily all good, right after I closed on my house, I left my job for a "better" offer that didn't pan out. I ended up bouncing arround at 3 or 4 mediocre jobs for a year. I lived on Mac and Cheese supplimented by an occasional Ramen Feast! I added diced provolone cheese, minced onions and summer sausage, not a bad feast.
