Not this.

It tastes good for sure. But it makes me wake up at 2am literally coughing up pure stomach acid.

Also, its a total pain in the ass to make. What with its 4 different combined sauce and flavor packets. Fuck that shit....just eat a cup o noodles

>>10403578
are you supposed to do something with this that i'm missing

I always just dumped everything in hot water and ate it like any other ramen

>>10403609
Yep. I used to love these as a teenager but they started giving me horrible acid reflux and weird shits as I got older. Can't do 'em anymore.

>>10403615
Nah man you're meant to cook the noodles, drain the water, then add all the packet stuff

>>10403615
Basic way to a great mi goreng
Noodles in boiling water
Take out of water once cooked
Put in bowl with dry ingredients mixed
Add fried egg on top like every viet and indonesian person would do
Boom, cheap meal esp when a pack of these noodles is like 10c if you buy it by the box

>Bonus pure indonesian madness edition
Add steamed shrimps and onions for the true mi goreng experience

>>10403578
Potato is love

Oats are the most bland thing in the world. They are the water of foods.

>>10404002
I put vark sauce on mine so I don't have that problem.

>>10403615
Just read the directions and follow them you fucking shitter. The only people who eat packaged shit and don't follow directions are boomers and retards.

>>10403578

That shit is terrible. And I have no idea what the fuck kind of buffets you go to, but they probably use cheaper noodles and than your 'straya shit.

$.69/lb, versatile and delicious.

>>10403578
I've come to prefer instant soup noodles, because if you strain the noodles out and keep the water, you can cook rice in it.

>>10404184
>You can cook rice in water

>>10404002
>Water being bland
wew lad
I'll agree that oats without any added ingredient is bland as fuck though

>>10403686

I would much rather throw 3 eggs in a frying pan, slap two slices of bread on top of them, mayo the top of the bread, wait for the eggs to cook, flip over, throw some cheese on top, real cheese, not American singles, and then shut it. Literally cost the same as your shitty pack of ramen or less and it actually tastes good and has protein. Not as many calories, but instant ramen calories (or instant fried noodles) aren’t much better than the calories you get from candy...

Dude what? Boil in salted water for 20-25 mins. What's so hard about that you dense motherfucker?

>Heavy af
On the other hand, adding one potato to your meal is enough to get you satisfied, two to make you feel overly full. Also, are you telling me you can't carry 2.5 kg, wtf

>Can't be stored for long
Store them in the fridge and they last for weeks

>Tastes bland
Sounds like you never ate a single one in your lifetime apart from stuffing your face with fries

Costs 0.69 € and makes two people full, you can also add minced meat for a cheap bolognese. Pretty neat for when money's running out at the end of the month but eating this more than three days in a row fucks you up.

>You can cook rice in water
>Who knew!?!

I should have been a bit more clear.
While cooking the "Soup Noodles" you normally add a packet of seasoning and what not. They mix with the water to create a kinda soup stock for the noodles. Those flavors infuse into the noodles, but remain mostly in the water/liquid.
When cooked, you remove the noodles and have a bowl of nice noodles that are infused with a chilli flavor (my flavor of choice) and are left with a chilli liquid soup stock. Of you cook rice in that stock, it will absorb that chilli flavoring.

Now yes, I could just make a watery soup stock base to cook rice in, but this way is quicker, cheaper and you can get two, maybe three (depending on how much rice you cook) meals out of it, therefor making it a cheap thing, for poorfags.

>>10404541
There's no secret ingredient that make this noodle tasty, No fried shallot and also no chilli packet

why are americans like this

>>10403730
you can just crush the noodle in the packet and pour in the spices and shit and eat it like it was recess

tuna: 14p a tin
noodles: 5p (?) a pack
fish: 1 pound for a large bag of fillets
pitta: 10p a pack
crab sticks: can't remember, but cheap

this + cucumber and tomatoes (10 years ago)

Rate

>>10404892
this. 2kg+ pasta bulk is cheaper than anything.

This is literally 4 cents a kilo

To be fair, it's barely food. Now that 6 pack of coconut milk I got off Amazon for $8, no regrets.

Can you suggest a healthy meal within a safe budget range? Can add some meat as it's payday.

>>10405020
It's also borderline inedible on its own.

I dare you to eat more than 2 leafs in one sitting. Uncooked and unseasoned.

>>10405276
Why the fuck would I do that? When you said "on its own" I thought you meant as a meal's sole ingredient.

>>10405276

Even regular cabbage is easy, and napa cabbage is the boring flavorless alternative to that.

>>10405222
nice trips, but making pic related with gf.

>>10405276
You can eat raw shredded cabbage as a pallet cleanser. The japs do this all the time.

My weeb knowledge is lacking so I might be wrong on this one.

>>10405335

You got me. Even though I priced it in US dollars, you obviously caught on to how chickens don't have legs in the US; they're just grown as boneless breasts.

>>10405422
it has to be unprepared

that said ive never seen pre-cooked chicken have taxes applied. that must be provincial level fuckery

>>10405015
ive found that its either potatoes or rice that are cheapest, depending on exact sales/season/local stores.

>>10405203
i learned to do this from, i shit you not, EncyclopediaDramatica

leave it to a bunch of furry-obsessed internet bullies to teach a young kid real life skills like cooking

>>10405475
So many people told me they eat that shit like soup, that i genuinely thought that i was mistaken for eating it like that. Tried it once, didn't like it.

I just sprinkle the packets on the noodles and stir it for a bit. Tastes great

>>10405020
it seems cheap but you need to use so much of it that you may as well just get a full assortment of veggies at that point

>>10405487
yeah, drain the water, leave just enough so the powder gets wet and spreads properly, and put it back on the still-hot burner and stir until nice and combined

>>10405475

Growing up, this is what I did with all ramen. I'd drain the noodles and sprinkle the seasoning packet on them. I'd end up using a half packet of the seasoning, wondering if it was just an asian thing to make their noodles inedibly salty. It wasn't until I went off to college that I learned it was supposed to be a soup.

>>10405679
>It wasn't until I went off to college that I learned it was supposed to be a soup.
To be fair, you're only supposed to use 2c of water, not fill a pot up entirely. And some brands are saltier than others. And asians do just make their noodles that salty. Ever been to a real ramen place? salt city

>>10403578
I just recently discovered this and now I want to retroactively throw out all the Top Ramen I've ever eaten in my life.

Brussel sprouts. Super nutritious, super cheap. Tasty cooked with some garlic, and they keep much longer than most vegetables.

>>10404440

this post >>10405335 was for you :)

>>10405335
actually, literally on that level because that exactly what they eat.

Make a soup. From anything*. It will be cheap and probably taste alright.

Could be the aberration between prepared in store and prepared off premises. In my experience cakes come in frozen and are just defrosted where as chicken comes in raw and is actually cooked in store.

No Asian supermarket in white-peoplesville. eBay even more expensive than Amazon for Mi Goreng.

Potatoes are also ~80% water while dried cereals are ~13%, or about a sixth of that. Cereals are cheaper when you take this into account, important when buying in bulk.

It actually doesn't have that much sodium. Literally any brand of instant ramen or broth noodles has far more, because the powder gets diluted by water so it has to be stronger. IndoMie has less than half the sodium of one packet of Shin Ramyun. This info is readily available no reason to be a retard.
