Where do you buy/get the fresh thin egg noodles?
Bebs says
They are usually sold in the groceries where the other noodles/pasta are. In some supermarkets, you can even buy the fresh (not dried) egg noodles.

Did this in instant pot. Was soooo good! Brought me back home. Just added alil bit of water after because it was a tad salty. After that i added pepper as extra for soft heat haha. Thanks for the recipe!
Bebs says
