If serving with a fried egg on top, this dish is better eaten immediately. If you are making the noodles in advance, for a packed meal/picnic, it works better with the egg stirred through the noodles or perhaps the noodles without the egg. Either way, it makes a delicious meal on the run.
This is another recipe in my series of quick recipes for Charlotte and Emma. Emma is a pescatarian whereas Charlotte enjoys meat too, so this recipe is perfect and easily adaptable for both of them.
