Simple snack... Pimp up your shop bought noodle soup

We all know these shop bought noodle soup thingies. Flat, tasteless, dull overkill on the chili and inluding a sachet of unrecognizable and untraceable spices which make you wonder how they would look freshly picked ...

Well, let me tell you how you can pimp up you noodle soup !

All you need a a packet of that shop bought noodle soup

Some paksoi coarsely chopped
Some dried mushrooms
A spring onion
Some coarsely chopped red pepper/paprika
Fresh chilli to taste
Some oyster sauce
A bit of roasted sesame seeds

This is so simple to do ! In the time it takes you to boil the water for the noodles, you cut up all the veggies. Take the closed packet of noodles and start crcking up the noodles so you get all these tiny bits of noodle. Drop them in a bowl. Add (if you dare) the added seasoning sachets. wack in the veggiesand the roasted sesame seeds. Once the water has boiled, ad it to the noodles. Since the noodles need to soften a while (3-4 min) the dried mushoorms will be able to soak too and give the broth a really subtle mushroomy taste. Add some of the oystersauce and if you like the chilli.

Now take your spoon, mix the noodles, veggies and oyster sauce well. And indulge yourself in this tasty and delicious noodle soup!

I often have a cup of noodles soup in the afternoon. You know, at work, behind the desk, you feel this "Oh God, stil not time to go home"-moment coming up... And when I do, a cup of noodle soup just gets my tastebuds going again and helps me get through those last few hours of work. But how to prep this soup at work ?? Easy !! Cut up all the veggies at home. Put them in a small container, add the dried mushrooms in there too. Get yourself two plastic sandwich bags. Take one and fill the lower angle with some oyster sauce. Put a knot just above that angle. Take the other plastic sandwich bag and put the roasted sesame seeds in there. Drop the both bags in the container with the veggies.

When you go prepare this soup at work, all you need to do is take otu your container, put it all in a bowl with the noodles, take two cups of hot water out of the coffee machine and... ENJOY !!
