Bami Goreng (30-minute thick Indonesian noodles)
Report
As I sat there, stirring the seitan, the golden, sauce-drenched noodles and tofu in the hot wok, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pleasure. The sizzle of the oil, the aroma of the garlic, the anticipation of the finished product...it was all so intoxicating. And when I sat down to eat my bami goreng after less than 30 minutes from the time I stepped into the kitchen, it was like the world had stopped and all that mattered was these heavenly noodles.
