The first thing that popped into my head with this instant ramen was that a fried egg would be a perfect addition on this. If you need a quick guide on how to fry one perfectly, you can find my easy method on how to fry an egg.
Produced in Indonesia.
The overall flavor you get is definitely marked by a strong sweetness. It slightly overwhelmes the smoky chicken flavor. There’s also this subtle little spice hanging out in the background.
I think some shredded cheddar cheese melted over the top of this would be a really interesting twist. That creamy, savory thing could really play well with the sweetness. Plus, this is a pretty popular brand of instant noodles, so a lot of you out there may have tried it before.

Frequently Asked Questions
For the spice level, my friend James, who taste tests the ramens with me, gives his rating out of 5 based on his experience with the heat. My own spice tolerance tends to be higher than most, so James’s rating gives a more general sense of the spiciness. Keep in mind that spice is still subjective, so what’s mild for him might be spicy for you, and vice versa!
That’s how thick or thin the broth is. A 1/5 would be very watery, while a 5/5 would be super thick and almost syrupy.
This is just a general gauge of how thick the noodles are compared to other instant ramen noodles I’ve tried. A 1/5 would be very thin, like vermicelli, and a 5/5 would be very thick and wide.
Here, I’m just describing the style or texture of the noodles, like “udon-like” for a chewy and thick noodle, or “thin and curly” for a more classic instant ramen style.

It was quite salty the first time I made it because I made it like the original dry noodle, but second time I made it soupy and it was pleasently flavorful! But I prefer the original flavor more.
The ones I’ve tasted are the ones from Indonesia so it might differ from your experiences. I found the noodles to be on the flatter side, unlike the original one with the white packet that has a more cylindrical shape. The flavor’s okay, not my favorite. I feel like the umami taste is not really prominent, but it is savory. It’s also sweeter than its original counterpart. I don’t find it spicy at all. Overall 7/10.
