instant instant pot noodles

Hugh gave me the idea to make my own pot noodles

http://www.channel4.com/4food/recipes/chefs/hugh-fearnley-whittingstall/chorizo-and-tomato-instant-noodles-recipe

but here are my extra tips from my varying experiments

1  Invest in a good sturdy tupperware pot noodle shaped cup with lid, about 2 euros
2 Limit the amount of salt and stock, it doesn't take much too make it too salty
3 Buy thin noodles if you want them to cook in the pot in the traditional pot noodle way
4 Use spring or dried onions rather than finely chopped normal onions
5 Be inventive and experimental until you find the perfect recipe

 It takes me about 3 minutes to prepare these asian delights, perfect for the kids supper or as a lunchtime snack

  2. Very limited nutritional value to noodles - just empty carbs which burn too quick - go for brown rice every time!
