With flavours such as Chicken Ramen, Katsu Curry and Singapore Noodles tasty and filling enough as a standalone meal, it is now the trend for fans of Kabuto Noodles to ramping up their ramen by adding ingredients of their own and personalising their pots - and sharing their secrets on Instagram and TikTok.
Such creativity inspired Kabuto to ask TV Chef, cookbook author and mega foodie Kwoklyn Wan to create some of his own recipes to share with noodle fans everywhere.
Kwoklyn's culinary background begins with his grandfather who came to the UK from China and opened Leicester's first ever Chinese restaurant, serving up Chop Suey. Kwoklyn's Dad then went on to open his own restaurants too: the Beatles even visiting one of his popular establishments in 1964 when they played Leicester!
“The Panda” restaurant was Kwoklyn's first foray into food, helping out during the week, then becoming a full-time chef there when he was 16. Kwoklyn now runs a cookery business and is a regular on TV Shows, in magazines and newspapers, on the radio, and at live events. He is the author of books including The Chinese Takeaway Cookbook, which is the Ultimate Guide to recreating your favourite Chinese dishes at home.
Kwoklyn's recipes for Kabuto are easy and quick, tasty and perfect for busy lives. No Cook Kabuto is a surefire way to inject your meal with a kick of heat - crunchy, fresh spicy beansprouts are the perfect complement to the creamy Kabuto Noodles Vegetable Laksa: perfect for office lunches or a lighter meal in the evening.
Easy Midweek Kabuto is a bit of a treat: shredded roast chicken, American style cheese and a soft-boiled egg with the Kabuto Katsu Noodles pack a protein punch as well as feeling a little indulgent. Forget the takeaway - this is just as satisfying and ready in less than 10 minutes. Super Salmon Kabuto is an Omega 3 packed delight - Miso Kabuto Noodles with fresh salmon, kale and pomegranate seeds for a healthier and nourishing meal, perfect for the family.
Campfire Kabuto - inspired by Kwoklyn's love of his campervan and camping trips - is chilli chicken Kabuto Noodles with tinned meat, (the ultimate camping accessory!) spinach and egg for an energy boosting campfire treat to keep you going on your holidays. Crispy Kabuto is Singapore Kabuto Noodles is a stir-fried delicious delight, with tofu pieces, fried in sesame oil to make them crispy, with a zingy sauce. Wonderful as a Friday night 'fakeaway'.
Kwoklyn Wan says: “People want quick, easy, quality and amazing value, and the Kabuto community of fans are becoming more and more creative by the minute with their pot personalisation - you'll never be stuck for more ways to enjoy Kabuto Noodles. I wanted to create something exciting and fun for Kabuto fans.
