[RECIPE] How to Make DIY Mushroom Miso Soup Flavour Instant Noodles (Singapore Edition)

I came across the viral Facebook post by serious eats "The Food Lab: Make Your Own Just-Add-Hot-Water Instant Noodles (and Make Your Coworkers Jealous)".

The idea was oh-so-amazing, but I have found out that several items used in the recipe could not be easily found in Singapore. Hence, inspired from the post, I will post easy DIY instant noodles every now and then which consist of ingredients which can be easily purchased from Singapore's supermarkets. Which I've thus decided to label the edition as How to Make your own DIY Instant Noodles (Singapore Edition).

To kick start this edition, we start off with something really simple to prepare but yet really delicious.

How to Make DIY Mushroom Miso Soup Flavour Instant Noodles (Singapore Style)

Preparation Time:

10 Minutes

MAIN INGREDIENTS:

Ikea Glass Jug ($1.90)

Tea Tree Mushrooms ($2.00)

Instant Miso Soup (Packet of 5 from Daiso for $2.00)

Organic Udon ($3.90)

Spring Onions/Scallions

The last time I checked in October 2014, Ikea Glass Jug costs only $1.90. For the noodles, I have opted in for an healthier choice of Organic Udon which costs $3.90 in retail Giant supermarkets. Of course, you could use any other brands of noodles which you prefer. The bottled Teatree Mushroom can be purchased in most retail supermarkets as well and lastly, the miso soup base was from Daiso.

STEP BY STEP:

• Cook the noodles
• Placed them in the glass jug
• Topped it off with a handful of Teatree Mushroom
• Garnish it with Spring Onions or Scallions

Keep it in the refrigerator. If you are intending to consume it in school or at work, remember to bring along the packet of Daiso Miso Soup base, as well as the packet of dried tofu and seaweed included in the packet.

When you are ready to consume your instant noodles, open the packet of Miso Soup base as well as the dried seasonings and toss them on top of the noodles. It should look something like this:

Last but not least, add boiling water from a hot water dispenser, kettle or water cooler. Close the lid and wait for a few minutes. 

Stir it around a little after opening the lid and there you have it! Your DIY Mushroom Miso Soup Flavour Instant Noodles with items which can be easily purchased in Singapore.
