3. Make It With Peanut Butter

5.  Load It Up With Cheese

Nuke your noodles for around two minutes and add a couple of cheese slices or shredded feta in it.

You can sprinkle some chopped spring onions on it for that extra flavour. Not for the weak hearted, this dish comes with a little guilt. 

6. Sprinkle In Soy Sauce

Soy sauce enhances flavour and adds balance and complexity to food. Mostly it can bring soul to a cup of noodles. Sprinkle in some soy sauce in your cup of noodles and give it that extra kick of salt and spice.

9. Make It With Coconut Milk

Thai it up by cooking your noodles in a mixture of coconut milk along with fish sauce, sugar, and Thai curry paste. In what will be a thick, rich Thai version of noodles, it is a dish that is served only to prepare again. You can add some red bell peppers, mushrooms and celery sticks.
