Yummy Indomie Mie Goreng Cabe Ijo & Other Sambal Ijo Recipes

Indomie Goreng Cabe Ijo
My sis brought me this from Indonesia & I squealed with delight when I saw it!
I absolutely ADORE Indonesian style cabe ijo (green chilli) flavor profile, and I hardly find it in Hong Kong. That's why I got so excited when Indomie came up with mie goreng (my top favorite instant noodle) with this flavor. And finally, I've tried it!

Yeah yeah, my weekend breakfasts aren't exactly healthy. Weekends are dedicated for indulgence :D
Hmm... weekdays too T_T

My verdict, I tried it twice. The first time, I mixed everything from the packet, although I found it weird that the seasoning included sweet soy sauce (Indonesian sambal ijo flavor isn't normally sweet). It was good, but I'd prefer it without the sweet soy sauce. So the second time I tried it, I left out the sweet soy sauce and it was perfect! The "green chilli" flavors came through and I love love love it!

I had it with a fried egg, Indonesian style, crispy egg white, with still runny egg yolk.
Perfect.

I am not sure if it is available online, but here's how the packaging look like.

Hmmm, sometimes I miss sambal ijo flavors so much I cook stuff with sambal ijo flavors.
Here are some of the recipes:

Satay BBQ Chicken Flavored Indomie Goreng (Hong Kong Version)

Satay BBQ Chicken Indomie Goreng - Hong Kong Version
Remember my #1 guilty pleasure,
Indomie Goreng?
Hong Kong has its own version of Indomie Goreng...and although the Indonesian version is now available in most supermarkets, I couldn't help but wonder...how does the Hong Kong version taste like?

I've tried the Hong Kong version of Indomie Goreng "original" (yellow packaging), and it is different. The seasoning is relatively milder and the noodles are thinner and not as chewy.

This time, I'm trying the Satay BBQ Chicken flavored Indomie Goreng.

Yes, it is still a watered down version of the Indonesian one. The satay flavor's really mild, it's almost negligible...and it is not as garlicky and as "kicking" as the Indonesian version, it is also less oily. Maybe a touchhh healthier, but significantly less yummy, at least for me :D

From various local forums that SC reads, the Hong Kongers seem to like the Indonesian version more too...should they bother with a HK version?
Hello, Indofood?
Are you listening?
