Cup Noodles
10-12
oz
Water
Instructions
Place the dry cup noodles and seasoning in a microwave safe bowl or mug
1 Cup Noodles
Add water to the bowl, making sure to cover the noodles completely
10-12 oz Water
Cook on high for 3 minutes, stopping to stir every 1 minute
Remove container from microwave and place a lid or piece of foil on top
Allow to sit for 2-3 minutes so noodles soften completely and cool slightly
Mix together and enjoy
Notes
Cook time is based on a 1000W microwave. For lower wattage, increase time and for higher wattage, decrease time
Depending on the size of your bowl, you may need more or less water - just make sure the noodles are covered completely
Set a fork or chopsticks on top of the foil to ensure a better seal so noodles steam
Feel free to add in other toppings such as sliced meats, green onions, or an egg!
