If you can't beat them, join them! Right? It is a given that you cannot wean children away from instant noodles. (Well, at least I could not, though I tried my best! ) So here is the thing. Why not try to add some vegetables and cheese to make it a little nutritious. This way even though it will remain a fun food it will not be entirely a junk food!
Try this twist to the regular instant noodles and delight the kids. I may not be a kid but I enjoyed it too:)
1 packet instant noodles ( any flavour)
2 tbsps grated cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp garlic, crushed
1/4 cup sweet corn, tinned, whole kernel
2 tbsps capsicum, cubed
1/4 tsp black pepper powder
Salt to taste
Pinch of red chilli flakes
2 burger buns
1/4 cup caramelized onion rings
2 tbsp fresh coriander leaves
Butter as required
1 tbsp oil
Method: Prepare noodles as per directions using the enclosed spice sachet. Once the noodles are ready add grated cheese, chopped coriander leaves, capsicum cut in small cubes, sweet corn, salt , pepper, red chilli flakes and garlic. Mix well.
Warm a non stick pan and lightly grease with oil. Slice the burger buns and warm lightly on the pan. Keep aside. To assemble....spread butter on the lower part of the bun, place a layer of caramelized onion rings, layer the noodles and cover with the buttered top half of bun. Serve hot.
If you want you can put an extra layer of cheese slice in the burger. You can use other veggies of your choice like carrot, peas etc. You can use regular onion rings instead of caramelized onion rings.
