Packet instant noodles turned into a cheap, filling snack-shop dish: stir-fried with plenty of extra ingredients and served with an egg.
How it is made
At Pao Ko Oden in Tainan the noodles are Uni-President's braised-pork flavour, first cooked in a pork rib and radish broth and then stir-fried with toppings. A half-cooked egg with a runny yolk goes on top.
How to eat it
Get a few pieces of oden on the side. Break the egg and mix it through.
In Tainan
Pao Ko's owner turned to frying noodles after a fire destroyed his printing works, and the noodles are now the shop's most popular dish.
