I love this. I have absolutely no clue what aloo tama is. Hmmm… Wikipedia had this to say –
Aloo tama (Nepali: आलू तामा) or aloo bodi tama (Nepali: आलू बोडी तामा) is a Nepali soup dish made of fermented bamboo shoots, potatoes and black-eyed peas.[1][2]Aloo tama can literally be translated as potato and tama soup. Tama is fermented bamboo shoots that has a strong sour taste.[3]A simple potato curry is cooked and at the final stages the bamboo is fried (some may not choose to do it) and added to the soup. Another ingredient in this soup very commonly used would be bodi or tane bodi which is the black eyed peas making it aloo tama bodi. Garlic, tomatoes and lemon are also used by some people.
Fermented bamboo shoot. Indeed, this and the previous review are varieties very new to me. Let’s give it a try!

CG Wai Wai Aloo Tama Instant White Noodles – Nepal
Detail of the packaging (click to enlarge). Looks to be meat free but check for yourself. To prepare, add noodle to 360ml boiling water and cook 5 minutes. Add in sachet contents. Finally, stir and enjoy!
An instant noodle block.
A sachet of soup base powder seasoning.
A sachet of liquid soup base.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added egg, chicken, basil, scallion, sesame seed, and crushed red pepper. Noodle is a little thicker than the rest and a nice bit of chew. The broth – this is the stuff I’m really into. I’ve never had one quite like it – tangy, sour, kind of akin to asaam laksa but definitely not asaam laksa. Broth was thick and oily and just plain great. Loved this so much. 5.0 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 8901741001115.
Amazon – Although from Morocco, I think this bowl would be neat for these
