Korean Instant Noodle + Cheese + Egg and Potato Crisps, Sounds Insane?

It's Monday and the 1st day for the 11th month of the year! How time flies!!!

I'm having a little Monday blues now looking the amount of work I need to tackle grrrrr... anyway back to today's blog title... I know it sounded incredulous but the combination of Korean Instant Noodle + Cheese + Egg and Potato Crisps is absolutely delish.

I first read about this at Rita's blog, I did thought it's kinda ridiculous but not until the second person, Celine, proclaimed that this is yummy that I gave second thoughts about this combination. One afternoon, I felt like indulging on something naughty, hence I made a bowl of this noodles. Both Rita and Celine have used Shin Ramyun, the spicy noodles but since I've ran out I've used Nongshim potato flavoured one (non-spicy) instead.

What one need to do is cook the noodles accordingly, once it's almost cooked chuck in a slice of cheddar cheese. Pour in one lightly beaten egg and according to Rita, stir in the egg which meant to thicken the soup. Once done, pour into a serving bowl and topped with potato chips. I have some extra chopped spring onions in the fridge so they're on top as well.

Korean Instant Noodle + Cheese + Egg and Potato Crisps

I have no regret after my first slurp LOL... the soup is creamy, coupled with springy noodles and crispy chips; like Celine had mentioned; it's wacky but delicious. I cleaned my bowl till I can see my reflection on the shiny bowl bottom :p

Do give this wacky combination a try, well if you're brave enough :D

  10. Chips on anything is good. ;-) Did you know that Nong Shim has a new flavour Kimchi Cheese? I bought it but haven't dare try it yet. I just used the noodles to make something else! I love the potato (gamjatang) flavour too. Did you also know that the Nong Shim noodles are no longer made in Korea?

  16. When I was in UK, its mostly Onions, sardines and bits of crisps mixed into the dry version of instant noodles.

    On other days, it would be just biscuits or bread mixed with tuna/sardine and onions.

    Or just onions, sardines and cornflakes.... yum yum
