Pot Noodles

Do any of you guys know the correct water to noodles ratio? I am just cracking one open now (as i had the pot noodle horn and had to run over to the Spar to get me a chicken and mushroom). My friend made me one the other day, he put too much water in it and it went like a gray/green soup.

I thought that was well out of order. :confused:

He simply overcooked it. As I know you' ve got to put about 100 gr. of noodles/pasta
in 1 liter of boiling water. The water must be boiling not worm or hot. Cooking time
depends on the product. But it's usually up to 5min for noodles and up to 15min for pasta.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the advice. i feel really let down by myself when i put too much water in the pot. Worse than that I forgot to boil the kettle the other week then put the water in. How am i supposed to get out of that one??

I find Pot Noodles too salty for my liking

Pot Noodles are basically just noodles in a chemical slop.

I wouldn't worry, it always looks like gray/green soup.

I've noticed that they are only useful when filled right up to the top, otherwise the pot won't keep the door open. Wink
