OK, so officially this is a breakfast. Yep. You heard me. Served around the world (and more specifically throughout Asia) as breakfast, I prefer it for dinner. But knock yourself out. CHEAP doesn’t begin to describe it. Delicious, whichever end of the day you indulge.

If you have never tried it (at hotels throughout Asia it is standard breakfast buffet fare) then now is the time to get all organised. The sky is the limit when it comes to adding in flavours. You will be whipping out the chopsticks in no time!
