Ingredients
Scale
Ramen Base
- 6 ounces Ramen noodles
Savory Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons Light brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon Red pepper flakes
Protein and Garnish
- 1 large Egg
- Thinly sliced green onions
- Everything but the bagel seasoning (optional)
Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Boil the ramen noodles according to package instructions, typically 3-4 minutes, until tender but still firm. Drain well and set aside.
- Melt Butter and Sauté Garlic: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it gently sizzles. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Prepare Sauce: Add soy sauce, light brown sugar, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir and let the mixture bubble and thicken slightly for about 2 minutes, creating a rich and balanced sauce.
- Cook Egg: Push the noodles to one side of the pan. Crack the egg into the empty space and scramble gently until just cooked through, then mix the egg into the noodles and sauce to incorporate a creamy texture.
- Toss and Coat: Toss all ingredients together thoroughly until the noodles are fully coated in the flavorful sauce. Cook for an additional minute to meld the flavors.
- Serve and Garnish: Plate the ramen in bowls and garnish with thinly sliced green onions and a sprinkle of everything but the bagel seasoning, if desired, for extra crunch and flavor.
Notes
- For extra protein, you can add cooked chicken or tofu.
- Adjust red pepper flakes to your preferred spice level.
- Use instant ramen or fresh ramen noodles as available.
- Everything but the bagel seasoning is optional but adds a great texture contrast.
- For a richer sauce, try adding a splash of sesame oil.
