warningStay safe

Squirting water onto hot oiled iron produces instant hot steam and oil splatters; keep your body and hands at a safe distance to prevent burns.

  • Drizzle 20ml cooking oil onto the center of the griddle
  • Lay 2 cold noodle sheets onto the oil (remove plastic film first)
  • Lift the edges of the noodle sheets and squirt about 100ml water underneath onto the hot surface, using the sudden steam to instantly soften the noodles
