Noodles with egg in the pocket are mainly about pairing noodles with egg for eating. They are not only delicious but also have high nutritional value. However, to make them taste good, of course, you need to pay attention to certain steps and skills. You might as well pay attention to the delicious noodles with egg in the pocket cooking method introduced in the following text.

Step 1: First, prepare the ingredients. The ingredients prepared are dried noodles and eggs.

Step 2: Prepare the pot and start boiling water. I used plain water to cook the noodles today. In my hometown, there is a method called ‘frying the pot’, which is to put oil and scallions, similar to the steps before stir-frying. I’ll use plain water directly this time.

Step 3: Once the water boils, you can put the noodles in.

Step 4: After the noodles are put into the pot, please immediately crack the eggs into the pot, see the picture below. This step requires attention. After the noodles are put into the pot, adjust the heat to a lower level while the water is not boiling, and then add the eggs. The purpose of doing this is to prevent the eggs from flying out.

Step 5: I used the seasoning packet of instant noodles to flavor the noodles today. It would be even better if you add some green vegetables like rapeseed leaves. The noodles can be taken out after about 2 minutes of boiling.

Step 6: At this time, it’s basically ready to be taken out of the pot. If you like your eggs a bit softer, you can take it out within 2 minutes. If you like the eggs cooked a bit longer, wait for 3 minutes before taking it out.
