TikTok Ramen

Ingredients

• Instant ramen
• Butter
• 1 teaspoon of minced or chopped garlic.
• Brown sugar or honey
• Soy sauce
• Crushed red pepper flakes
• Egg

Method

1. Cook your instant ramen. Don’t overcook it – mushy noodles are a travesty.
2. Instant ramen should have an al dente bite. Pop the noodles into boiling water, set a timer, use a pair of chopsticks to loose them up, and when the time is up, instantly drain them and set them aside.
3. Pro tip: Cook the noodles slightly less than the suggested cooking time, they will cook up a bit more while you’re tossing them in the sauce.
4. This way you’ll have perfectly al dente noodles.
5. Make the sauce. In a pan, heat up the butter over low heat.
6. Add the garlic and cook until soft. Stir in the crushed red pepper, then the brown sugar and soy sauce.
7. Add the drained noodles to the pan, turn up the heat, and toss to coat.
8. Push the noodles to one side and add an egg to the pan and scramble until just set.
9. Serve. Place the noodles in a bowl and finish with sliced scallions and everything bagel spice. Enjoy hot!
