During home isolation throughout Covid-19 restrictions, there was no way that I was going to waste the festivities of a Saturday night! Our plan was for the two of us to watch a large screen movie at home after a meal designed around the theme of the movie. We completed this series over a period of 7 weeks and this is one of them.
This movie 'Parasite' was Oscar winning and quite bizarre! There was one cooking scene where the maid quickly concocts a 2 minute noodle dish. I decided to make that dish with the extras of a fried egg, slivers of cooked eye fillet steak and some bok choy on the side to make us feel healthier!
Jjapaguri or Ramdon ('Ram' for Ramen and 'don' for Udon)
1 packet of Nongshim 'Chapaghetti' (from supermarket)
1 packet of Nongshim Neoguri noodles (from supermarket)
Boil 4 cups of water in a saucepan and add the noodles from both packets. Cook for 4 minutes until tender and strain, making sure that you retain approx 1/3 cup of the cooking water.
Return the noodles to the saucepan and add the reserved water and the contents from all the sachets of the noodle packets. Stir and cook until fully coated. Serve in bowls topped with slices (or cubes) of steak and a fried egg. And if you are like me, have a bowl of greens on the side! It is a little on the spicy side.
