The forbidden fruit is always so juicy and tasty even though you do not really like it. My girls are absolutely crazy over maggie mee, which is their version of instant noodles. That’s because I hardly ever allow them to eat. Each time they see kakak or daddy slurping salty and spicy maggie mee from their bowls, they would run to them and beg to have just one spoonful. Whenever I am in the mood to cook maggie mee, like say 4-5 times in a year, there will be shouts of ‘YAY’ and ‘YAHOO‘, LOL!  But the maggie mee that I serve my kids are without the seasoning and MSG from the packet of noodles. I make my own sauce or soup to go with the noodles.
Soup made from fish, anchovies, pork slices and garlic….
Then add in some Chinese cabbage and fish paste….
Onion omelette for added protein and nutrients….
And here’s the maggie mee that I serve my kiddos for dinner…
Free from seasoning and MSG and they like it anyway! Every strand of noodles was wiped out that night, even the flesh from the fish!

My girls love instant noodles too. I allow them to take it once in a while.
Instant noodles are my favourite too when I was younger. Same as your kids, I will go YAY, YAHOO! when mum served me that. haha…. Now, will only take once in a blue moon knowing they are unhealthy.
haha my girl like instant noddles too, she said I wanna the yellow curly2 mee.
My children also love the chicken flavour maggi mee. Like you, I try to limit their intake. Not so healhty. Usually I will add some tomatoes, celery, hams and eggs into the soup and add a bit of its MSG (the most is half pack) and voila!! Nice warm noodles in the evening 😛
My kids love noodles too but how do you make a fish-based soup? I always worry that it’ll smell fishy…
Kit, I fry the anchovies and fish with garlic first. Then add in a few slices of ginger, tomatoes, pumpkin and veggie. No fishy odor at all but very tasty!
