My son went and picked out a bunch of instant noodles at the Asian grocery a couple weeks ago and today he would like to try this one. A good pick – nothing’s more interesting than curry! I put curry up there with garlic, bacon and kimchi… Indescribably tasty.
Here’s the back of the package (click image to enlarge).
The noodle block.
Powder seasoning and chili powder.
Here’s the seasoning powder – no chili powder here though. I figure everyone knows what it looks like and since the boy doesn’t like anything spicy, left it out.
Seasoned oil.
Has a nice curry scent to it.
Here’s Andy enjoying some noodles – he digs ’em! Check out his blog, Andy’s LEGO Stuff! Click here!
Finished (click image to enlarge). Added some white rice and kamaboko. The noodles are your standard tasty Indomie. The broth is really nice – that oil makes such a difference. It’s got a really confortable chicken curry flavor! Excellent stuff – 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. UPC bar code 089686140101 – get it here.
This is absolutely awesome – 40th annoversary of Indomie video!
Indofood makes cooking oil and all sorts of other things as well
Of the re-reviews I’ve done recently, I would say this is one of the most recent. Here’s the link for it’s first review, #858. Cakalang is also known as Skipjack tuna.
Finished (click to enlarge). I added some sweet onion, a fried egg with some Krazy Mixed Up Salt and Dua Belibis chili sauce. This stuff packs from heat! The noodles are your standard Indomie – nice texture and spring. The broth is spicy and has a nice tuna flavor along. There was a packet of garnish, which was dried tuna bits and was quite tasty. I like this a lot! 4.5 out of 5.0 stars. UPC bar code 08968604302 .
This is about Indonesian musical intruments – very cool!
Here’s what happens when you have musicians playing!
This is one that ended up at second place on the Top Ten Spiciest Instant Noodles Of All Time – that means its really hot! There are these tiny little peppers (chilli paddi) that are real scorchers and they’re small enough that when you happen to find one, you get quite a jolt! I reviewed this a while back this year – #732 and during the Meet The Manufacturer: Indomie special. This is one of the packs sent directly from Indofood in Indonesia – I am told they will be sending some new samples very soon! Can’t wait to try them!
Finished (click image to enlarge). Added sweet onions, turkey breast, two scrambled eggs and some Dua Belibis chilli sauce. Noodles are quite good – same style as the #1 from the Top Ten Instant Noodles Of All Time list. The flavor is nice – the noodles are coated with a slightly spicy but sweet flavor – and those little peppers pop up now and again and blow your head off – exhilarating! 4.25 out of 5.0 stars. UPC bar code 089686040692 .
How do they make Indomie? Watch and see! I believe this is an African plant but I’m sure its not much different in Indonesia.
I’m going to go out on a limb here. I would say that if I were held down and demanded to answer the question “what is your favorite instant noodle of all time” that I would probably say it was this one. I would also say the Special Fried Curly Noodle that tops the Top Ten Instant Noodles Of All Time list; they’re both equally amazing and awesome. What I can’t believe is that I haven’t had it since review #51! That’s ANCIENT! I used to eat this one all the time.

Here’s the noodle block – notice the special curliness.
Dehydrated veggies on the left, seasoning powder on the right.
Neat looking veggies.
The seasoning powder.
Hey look – more seasoning powder and chili powder – huh?
So if you look at the directions on the pack, you’ll notice below there’s a mention of soup. With this stuff, you make the noodles like regular Mi Goreng but there’s also a soup you add at the end.
Seasoned oil.
Tasty tasty!
Here’s a littler family portrait of all the seasonings together.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added sweet onion, stir fry veggies, turkey breast, fried egg and Dua Belibis chili sauce. The noodles are great – flat and broader than your standard Indomie noodles. Yes – they’re curly as well! The flavor is sweet and spicy with a little chick flavor. The broth adds another facet as the noodles aren’t dry but have a nice small amount of broth. Excellent – pure wonderful! 5.0 out of 5.0 stars.UPC bar code 089686040159 – find it here.

Someone asked quite a while back if I would re-review this one, so I thought I’d do that today. Pedas means spicy in the Indonesian language.
Here’s the back of the package (click to enlarge).
The noodle block.
Dry seasonings – seasoning powder (bumbu) and chili powder (cabe).
There you can see the chili powder atop the seasoning powder.
The liquids and garnish: from left to right we have seasoned oil, sweet soy sauce and finally some fried onion which are added at the end.
Here are the sweet soy sauce and seasoned oil.
My son Andy wanted some Top Ramen Shrimp flavor, so I whpiped up some with kamaboko and broccoli.
Here he is enjoying his noodles and watching some old Robotech cartoons. We added a new post to his blog, Andy’s LEGO Stuff – check it out!
Finished (click to enlarge). Added a fried egg, veggies, some beef with Soul Seasoning and some Dua Belibis chili sauce. Noodle are good – chewy enough, not soggy and a good amount. The flavor is a little spicier than regular Mi Goreng, which is milder. It’s a sweet and spicy flavor that coats all of the noodles nicely. The fried onion gives a satisfying crunch here and there. Excellent! 4.5 out of 5.0 stars! UPC bar code 089686171679 – get it here.
