Another Ramen Recipe
 

It is a guilty pleasure of mine that I still like to eat the cheap Ramen noodles. I'm always looking for ways to dress them up.

I've done things like added various vegetables to them.

I've done the egg-drop Ramen (in chicken-flavored ramen).

I recently tried to come up with a Thai peanut Ramen.

I cook a package of Oriental flavored Ramen according to the directions.

When I add the flavor packet, I also add about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper and at least 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric. Then add just about a table-spoon of crunchy (unsweetened) peanut-butter. Stir and enjoy.

You could add tofu, or any number of vegetables to this as well.

The more peanut-butter you add the sweeter it will be, so be careful especially if you don't have unsweetened or no-sugar-added peanut butter.

WARNING: This product contains peanuts and/or ingredients that were produced in a facility that processes peanuts.

Thanks for the allergy warning.

This reminds me that I am, at present, out of ramen.

Everybody Loves Ramen...I do. I usually start with shrimp or vegetable flavored and add whatever I have around. A couple days ago I had shrimp to which I added brussel sprouts which I steamed, then salt and black pepper, and then drizzle some olive oil into it. Did you ever dribble your own egg into it and make egg drop? I use a strainer, crack an egg into it, and hold it over the hot ramen soup as I stir the egg in the strainer so it drips through into the hot soup and makes egg drops. Or I add various types of seafood, which barely needs cooking anyway, so I slice it real thin and drop it into the very hot soup. Over and out.

Cook some ground beef with the ramen seasoning (add a few other spices if you'd like to intensify the flavor. Boil the noodles and place on plate. The add the seasoned ground beef along with some lettuce, tomato, cheese, sour cream, and some salsa.... it's $$$

I once took a beef ramen seasoning packet, added liquid but not nearly as much as requested on the package, sauteed chicken breast cut into smaller pieces. After the chicken was prepared I added in the noodles and a can of chop suey vegetables. It turned out not half bad.

Ramen is some good stuff. Its amazing all the things that can be done with it. a slice of cheese in the hot water before its all absorbed mixed in for some cheesy ramen is always good. Lately i have just been making plain ramen with cayanne pepper to make it spicy and some diced up pan fried chicken cooked in a little olive oil and covered in italian seasoning tossed on top when the ramen has soaked up the water. Simple cheap and surprisingly filling.

I never use as much water as your supposed to but i dont like my ramen soupy prefer just the noodles.

I haven't tried it, but I bet grilled sausage would not be too bad with Ramen. A kind of jambalaya Ramen....mmmmmm

ramen noodles are awesome! depending on the brand, ramen noodles can be turned into a great midday meal or late evening snack. I usually put an egg in the boiling water before i add the noodles, so the egg can cook thoroughly and the yolk not break. After adding the noodles I'll throw in some chopped celery, mushrooms, and napa cabbage. Once all that's cooked, I strain out some water, leaving a little water left in the pot and empty in the powdered seasoning. top with some green onions...... MMMMMM!!!!! Gotta go make some now!!!!

I grew up on ramen noodles. My mom would always cook my sister and I some before school in the mornings. She would add a fried egg and slice up a hot dog with it. The egg would be crispy on the sides and still yolky in the middle. Mixing the yolk with the noodles was the best.
