Today I want to share with you what I eat, and how I make it and how, you too, can eat like me…
Maggie Madness:
Things needed- one packet Maggie noodles (I usually get the flavor “Spicy and Tasty” or “Curry”), one cup of water, a working stove or fire, a pot, possibly a pair of scissors.
Directions-
- Boil aprox. One cup of water on the stove (I am currently using a propane stove, I like it)
- Once water is boiling, open one bag of Maggie noodles and place carefully into boiling water
- Stir slowly and make sure all noodles have been submerged, leave the temp on high
Sometimes I put a lid on the pan and turn down the flame a little but it’s not necessary
- After the first time the water is about to boil over, add half the seasoning pack to the water (this is where I sometimes have to use the scissors) and turn the water down to about medium… since I’m using a flame, I just make the flame a little smaller…
- After the noodles have darkened slightly and are not crunchy, drain water and add the rest of the seasoning packet.
- Stir well and enjoy, (if I am alone or making just enough for myself, I’ll eat it out of the pan, otherwise I use a bowl)
(if you would like some variety, you can change it up by changing how much water you drain, Ginny likes it best with the water completely drained out but I usually like it best with a little water left to keep it from getting too sticky, feel free to be adventurous and switch it upJ)
I usually eat Maggie noodles (basically the same thing as Ramen noodles) at least once a day, if not twice. I eat Maggie’s the way that Indian’s eat rice. Sometimes I will have a tomato with my noodles but not often. The nationals that learn what I’m eating always laugh, much like Americans did when I said I ate Rice-a-Roni every day. One of our partners felt so bad for me when he found out that I didn’t cook and was surviving on Maggie Noodles, he told me to come over for food anytime I was hungry and he would cook for me… I think he was really worried about me starving…
