Silver Thread Egg Pancake (A New Way with Instant Noodles)
A few days ago, my husband attended a relative's housewarming meal, and the relative sent us home a few packs of instant noodles as a return gift, which was a lovely surprise. Our family rarely buys instant noodles, as we’ve long thought they contain too many additives, but we hate to waste food, so we decided to use the packs we received. Boiling instant noodles the usual way is repetitive and underwhelming, so I thought of a new preparation: mixing it with egg to make a pancake, which gave birth to this flourless egg pancake, also called Silver Thread Egg Pancake — a creative new way to enjoy instant noodles.

Prepare one instant noodle cake.

Step 2
Add an appropriate amount of water to a small pot, turn the heat to maximum to bring the water to a boil, and place the instant noodle cake in to cook.

Step 3
Once the noodles are done, remove them and rinse with cold water, then drain off the excess. The cold water rinse keeps the noodles from sticking together.

Step 4
Crack the eggs and beat them until smooth with no sticky bits, then add an appropriate amount of instant noodle seasoning and mix well. No need to add water to the eggs.

Step 5
Reheat the pan, add an appropriate amount of oil, and place some noodles in. If the pan is large, add more noodles.

Step 6
