    Very Good
    I used 1 bunch of fresh cilantro instead of the knorr cubes. The flavor of the sauce was great. I would have given a 5, but the noodles all stuck together like glue after adding them in the sauce. I think next time I will just boil the noodles separately instead of frying first and cooking w/sauce - 10/29/10
