Egg Fried Noodles
Cook noodles as normal then transfer to a heated wok or frying pan. Stir fry for a minute then add in one beaten egg. Stir fry until the egg is fully cooked (about 1-2 minutes)
Custom seasoning
Ditch the ready made season packets with your noodles for your own mix of herbs and spices. For a nice Cajun mix, add in 1/2 tsp of both soy sauce and cider vinegar and a little cayenne pepper .
Cook in stock
Add a little extra flavour by cooking noodles in stock rather than plain boiling water. Simply add a stock cube to the water before adding the noodles.
