Satay chicken and noodles


This is another one of my bachelor creations. My girlfriend Zoe serves me raw food creations only so I have to cook for myself sometimes. So I take a shortcut and combine commercial preparations to make something different. And the creation below is VERY tasty -- plus being very filling and probably reasonably nutritious.

The three ingredients are below, a small paper bucket of noodles, a Satay flavour sachet and a can of shredded chicken. Yes. It even includes actual chicken -- sort of. Though it is mainly a noodle dish.



The noodles are fine ones so I crush them with my hands into a bowl. So I then have a bowl of noodle crumbs. I then tip on top of them the two small sachets that come with them in the bucket plus the Satay sachet, plus the contents of the can of chicken.

I then pour boiling water over the lot and use a spoon to mix the contents of the bowl together as well as I can. I measure the amount of boiling water with the bucket. I fill the bucket to about three quarters full and use that amount

I then put the contents into the microwave for one minute, take the bowl out, again mix the contents, then give it another minute in the microwave. I then set it aside for 10 minutes. That ten minutes is actually part of the cooking. The noodles will soak up the remaining water during that time -- resulting in a big bowl of noodle porridge. It is easy to eat and Yum! You can eat it with a soup spoon
