For me, it's kompe. It's a dish that's eaten in southern Norway, which consists of a little ball of salt pork surrounded by a potato dumpling. As the dumping is boiled, the flavor of the pork spreads through the potato, and it's a way to make a very poor meal feel like much more.

Most often eaten with butter, sugar, and lingonberry jam, I think the leftovers fried up on the second day are the best!

Instant ramen noodles are a childhood comfort food for me. My friend and I would make them at her house and we felt like we were expert chefs because we were using the stove, ha ha!

Porcupine meatballs. It's meatballs cooked in a tomato sauce (tomato soup basically). The meatballs are blended with uncooked rice that cooks while they boil. Besides takeout, this was probably the favourite dish of my siblings and I growing up.

Mine would be pancit luglug from the Philippines. My dad would always buy it for me after Sunday mass. It came wrapped in a banana leaf and news paper and tied shut with plastic straw.
