Oh my God, those look so good.
 
What’s the recipe?

@QueenCold  
Golden glistening!  
Nice!

@TheKingOfAverageness  
They are not breaded, but thoroughly seasoned. The meat was so tender you could slurp it off the bone. As you can see some of it already fell apart.
 
@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
You mean the chicken, right?
 
I coated them in a spice mix for chicken I had my mom send to me from the Netherlands because it is my favorite. I’ll have to look at the ingredients list later. It’s hand’s down the best poultry seasoning there is.  
Preheated the oven to 375 F, placed the seasoned drumsticks on the baking/cooling rack you see in the picture and then placed that rack on a baking sheet I lined with foil and poured some cold water into. I made sure to leave plenty of room for the juices.  
Covered everything with more aluminum foil and baked it for 45 minutes I believe. Drumsticks take 45 to 50 minutes in the oven depending on size.

Tried my hand at making hamburgers. They taste really good, but how do I keep the patty from falling apart?
 
Meanwhile, Captain Morgan’s and Blackberry Ginger Ale makes for a nice drink.

@Goobington  
To keep the patty from breaking, you can either use breadcrumbs, vegetable bits or just roughly grounded meat. You can also stop them from breaking by freezing it for a certain amount of time. But remember, you have to keep it firm with pressure.
 
I made burgers before and I usually mix it with diced mushrooms.

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
I’ll chop the onions, spinach, and pork belly more finely. I’ll also only flip it once.
 
Thank you.
 

Indonesian fried rice (nasi goreng)  
cooked together with some extra spices, vegetables, and topped with fried egg+corned beef (the beef and egg are mixed as well, becoming a beef omelette)
 
Made it myself using leftover rice from yesterday
 
Still, it taste really nice for dinner

@RhodieNite  
I love nasi goreng, but bumbus are impossible to find here. Even kecap manis is hard to come by.

@QueenCold  
Bumbus?

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
A bumbu is a blend of spices meant for a specific dish. There are different bumbus for different dishes.

@QueenCold  
Bumbu is an Indonesian word for seaaoning, condiment or other spices mixed to a dish

Indomie is one of the best instant dishes ever made.

@TheKingOfAverageness
 
Indeed! Almost everyone in the whole world acknowledged it
 
Especially the Mie Goreng variant

@RhodieNite  
Indomie with fried egg and bacon is some pure umami shit right there, up there with pure parmesan.

Indomie is hands down the best instant ramen.
 
 
@RhodieNite  
True. I guess the international use of the word (and spelling) varies a little.

@TheKingOfAverageness
 
I made mine with corned beef, fried egg, fried shallots, and extra kecap manis
 
Sometimes also topped with fried or sautéed mushrooms

@QueenCold  

 
They’re cheap, versatile, and the soy sauce is savoury sweet. Not mention the spice powder is aromatic.  
I tend to prefer dry cooked noodles over soup noodles.
 
You should also try these.  

@TheKingOfAverageness  

 
Indomie is the best in terms of the “mie goreng” variant. If it were the “mie sup” one, I’d prefer Maggi myself. Nothing beats classic Maggi Kari noodles soup.

@Lord Seraph  

 
 
A neverending rivalry!

@Lord Seraph
 
@RhodieNite
 
I’ve tried the kari spesial variety. Pretty good too. I still prefer Indomie :)

There’s Indomie,  

 
Mie Sedaap,  

 
And Maggi noodles.  

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
I thought Myojo Curry Chicken Noodles was better when I was a little younger. Now I’m on board with Maggi Kari.
 
Nissin seaweed noodles were also my jam back then, but I can’t find them now.

@TheKingOfAverageness  
I remember when Nissin cup noodles had a lot more meat in them. They got cheap.

How you prefer your eggs when making instant mee sup, hard-boiled and halved, or cracked into the broth?

@TheKingOfAverageness  
I like to crack it into the simmering broth, cover it with the soft noodles and wait for 1-2 minutes.
 
At that point, the yolk is still runny while the white is slightly cooked.
