As if instant noodles weren't innovative enough, Nissin Cup Noodle will soon have fried rice as well.

Here's a tweet from Nissin Cup Noodle:

Translation:

"The trouble of making fried rice using cup noodles. So please buy this fried rice. #mysteryroastedmeat"

Mystery meat fried rice

Dubbed the "mystery meat" fried rice, here's what a 300g packet of fried rice contains:

  1. Rice. Fully cooked and stir-fried at a high temperature.
  2. Seasoning. A soy sauce and pepper flavoured seasoning unique to Nissin cup noodles.
  3. Garnish. Includes mystery meat, eggs and green onion.

However, don't be thrown off by the mystery meat.

According to Nissin, the mystery meat is actually the minced pork meat that is often found in the brand's cup noodles.

The fried rice can simply be heated up in a microwave for five minutes and 30 seconds or stir-fried in a pan.

Here's what it may look like:
