Last weekend’s Sunday Times Life highlighted the 101 uses of instant noodles. This reminded me that long before they came out with this article , I had my own recipe in my archives. Well, I might as well share with all the blog friends here.

Hi Cool Chef, what is a tastemaker? Do we also use the instant noodle pre-packed soup spice?
The tastemaker refers to the sachet of seasoning powder and spices that comes with every packet of instant noodles. Use that to cook with the noodles before adding the other ingredients in.
