My Source Of Comfort Food

A couple of weeks back, the Sunday Lifestyle had about four pages attributing to the late founder of instant noodles by giving a hundred ways of cooking noodles. Instant noodles is the greatest invention in gastronomical circles. I can hardly imagine how I used to sustain my hunger at night when I was staying in the hostel without instant noodles!

Instant noodles is a source of comfort food for me, especially when there was hardly anything to eat at home, and I could not be bothered to whip up a full meal. All I had to do was to chop some vegetables, add the noodles and vegetables in boiling water, add in the packet ingredients, wait for a couple of minutes, and voila! a simple meal is ready to be partaken. All it takes is just slightly over five minutes.

Despite the comments on how unhealthy instant noodles are, it is deeply gratifying to have easy-to-make food readily available, anytime, anywhere. The invention of cup noodles make it even more convenient, as I need not even put any extra ingredients inside, just add boiling water, wait for a couple of minutes, and it is all ready to eat!

Thus, I was really happy to find the recipes for instant noodles, as I can then experiment on my own using the recipes available. Perhaps next time I can whip up a full meal of instant noodles without making it look like instant noodles!
