Instructions
 

  • Cook the egg noodles in a pot of salted boiling water to just tender, drain, rinse, drain. Add a few drops of cooking oil and toss the noodles, this will keep them from sticking together.

Notes

For this I am going with High cost per serving based on the dried beef aka chipped beef, which I have not seen in any stores I go to but it may be available in high end/Western grocery stores.
