Fried Macaroni

After making Macaroni Soup, I decided to do something else with my stock of macaroni. There are many recipes for fried spaghetti and I thought why not fried macaroni. True enough, there are lots of recipes for macaroni goreng (fried macaroni) with many versions.

I had some leftover minced meat in the freezer and I decided to use that together with my supply of homemade chili paste. I basically used my usual recipe for cooking fried noodles. 

This loaded container of Fried Macaroni was my Sunday evening dinner. Yes, eaten on the sofa in front of the TV to a few episodes of my favorite TV series. Ah, this is the life!
