Brilio.net - Instant noodles can always be a mainstay menu when pocket money starts to run low. This frugal menu is often relied on to make your stomach full. Apart from being cheap and filling, instant noodles also have a savory taste that always makes anyone addicted.
Even though there are many variants, most instant noodles are made the same way . Dried noodles in packages must be boiled first until completely cooked. Only then are the noodles mixed with the spices in the packaging.
Usually, instant noodles are boiled using a pan that has been placed on the stove. However, at certain moments, some people sometimes use other tools if there is no stove, for example an electric pan or rice cooker. This makeshift tool is often chosen as the final solution for cooking.
But what if the tools used for cooking are very anti-mainstream, like what netizens did on the X Segawon Lanang account. Through one of the uploaded videos, the netizen is seen wanting to make instant noodle soup.
However, instead of using a stove, electric pan or rice cooker, this netizen actually uses an iron. Yup, the iron that has been used to soften wrinkled cloth or clothes is actually used to cook instant noodles. More precisely, the iron is relied on to heat the water that will be used to cook the instant noodles.

Reported by BrilioFood from X Segawon Lanang on Wednesday (7/8), the upload initially showed a person holding an iron upside down. At the bottom end of the iron there is also a bowl of raw instant noodles, complete with seasonings.

So, the netizen then poured water little by little onto the iron plate. After all, the iron had been heated beforehand. Therefore, the water that is poured immediately releases hot steam. So, this hot water then goes straight into the bowl containing the noodles and is used to cook the food.

After the water filled half the bowl, he immediately lifted the iron. Even though the instant noodles didn't seem fully cooked, the netizen immediately stirred all the ingredients in a bowl. This is done to make the noodles more submerged and perfectly cooked after leaving them to rest.
Since it was uploaded on July 31, the video has immediately attracted the attention of netizens and has been watched more than 278 thousand times. Many other X users have provided various hilarious responses in the comments column. Most netizens looked surprised and shook their heads at the idea of cooking instant noodles.
