It wasn't long ago that I was sitting in the kitchen wondering what would be quick and simple to make for dinner. Pickins were slim as we hadn't made a run to the grocery store in some time, but we still had all of the staples and as we all know that includes a few packs of ramen noodles (even if it's only for the use of the noodles themselves). I went on the hunt for a solid and simple ramen noodles recipe that would be hearty enough to be called dinner...and I found one too:) I actually adapted a recipe from Chef Roi Choi. It's an incredible comfort food style recipe that fit the bill perfectly!
1. In a sauce pan bring your water to a boil. Add one pack of ramen noodles and cook them for 2 minutes. Then add your flavor pack. Yes, you actually use that flavor pack;)
2. Let your noodles and flavor pack cook for another 3 minutes then crack an egg into the mix. Don't break the yoke or try and mix it in though. Instead gently pull some of your noodles over the top of the egg and allow it to poach. This will take approximately 3 more minutes.
3. Carefully pour the noodles into a serving bowl making sure not to break your poached egg.
4. Then add a pat of butter and some sesame seeds (I used a few drops of sesame seed oil instead because that is what I had on hand). You then gently stir the mixture to incorporate all of the ingredients. On the top add a little cheese of some sort and finally some chopped green onion to cap it off.
I have to say we've all had the experience of eating a package of ramen noodles and then being hungry 30 minutes later. That's not the case with these! They are very filling, incredibly tasty, and dare I say the only way I can think of to eat ramens and rave about them!!!
