Prima Taste Laksa La Mian, 185g, (Pack of 6)

It's been a few years and we've probably eaten these once a month during that entire period. Yes they are prepackaged and dried. Yes the noodles are not absolutely fresh. But they are really really terrific. We add shrimp or chicken or tofu or any other protein, along with lots and lots of vegetables, and it's a brilliant filling dinner.A few tips. We cook the noodles in a separate pot of water, and we drain them but don't bother rinsing in cold water. Before we put the noodles into cook we already have our bowls set out, with everything that's going to be added. Those are given a 15 or 20 second microwave spin just before the noodles are done, to take the edge off the refrigerator cold.We have in the past added sesame oil, hot oil, crunchy garlic with chili oil, chopped up scallions or toasted onion as a garnish. Pretty much anything works if you like it.

This “noodle soup dish” has a great flavor

To respond to the reviewers that were put off by the smell of the paste. Yes, it is strong when you open the package. I was surprised at first. But when boiling the mixture, the smell went way down. By the time the whole thing was ready to eat, the bad smell was gone. The dish is delicious, but not for everyone. I have friends who could not handle it. Try a single package first.

This is the best ramen I have ever eaten. A little spicy ( I don’t usually like spicy- nor does my digestive system) but very savory, too. The noodles have a great texture, a little firm but you can also cook a little longer to soften them. It says that they are shrimp flavored but I don’t find that to be true. The coconut powder thickens the sauce and I do add chopped cooked shrimp for the last minute of cooking. I tame the spicyness with a little sour cream after I take it off the stove. No microwave instructions, you have to use stove top. It makes 2 servings, or 1 large. Also leftovers refrigerate well and will reheat in the microwave well.

These noodles were awful!! I saw so many good reviews online and wanted to try them. While I was cooking, it smelled awful, but I wanted to give it a chance. I tried them and instantly gagged. The flavor was terrible! It tasted like shrimp gone bad. Waste of money!

Like many of you I got this off the ramen ratings guy's site. Be forewarned - the shrimp paste is a very acquired taste for Western taste buds. My dog actually left the room when I started cooking this. I almost followed him. But I toughed it out and tasted it. Think baby shrimp scooped out of the ocean with all the other little critters that came along, dumped in the sun on a slab in Singapore to dry for who knows how long, scraped up, ground up and squirted into a bag. Now it has a certain umami don't get me wrong. But it is a tough row to hoe. The noodles, on the other hand, are exceptional. Air dried vs fried is the way to go. The coconut paste is fine and makes for a creamy mouth feel and whitish broth.

I watched some videos online where chefs were asked to taste different instant noodle varieties and comment on them. Every time they tried this one, they had good things to say about it. I decided to order a package and try it out. I have to say, it was an incredibly pleasant surprise.The noodles are about as good as any you're going to get in an instant ramen package, and better than some of the cheaper brands.The sauce, though, is what really sets these apart. It's creamy and delicious, like something you might order take-out from a restaurant. Major improvement over similar instant noodle products. With the addition of some protein and veggies, you could probably fool some folks into thinking they're getting something from a restaurant. I definitely recommend these.

ok so i got these instant noodles because a handful of reviewers claimed that these were the best or second best instant noodles in the universe. the package comes with a round dried noodle block, a packet of coconut milk dehydrated dust, and a packet of flavor paste/soup base. after preparing it according to instructions on the package, the bowl of noodles was letting off a bit sinister shrimp pastey stench. BUT once i tasted the broth Wow its really really good, very very shrimpy, the coconut milk is so creamy and delicious, and the noodles are a wonderful toothsome texture. im very interested to try this with actual shrimps and maybe some green onions in it. bottom line this is delicious instant noodle very impressive, and i think its a reasonable assessment to say these are one of the greatest instant noodles
