Why You’ll Love Spicy Ramen
As I have mentioned before, ramen is one of my comfort meals, and this one is SO good and easy to make. This one is spicy and delicious. The poached egg on top is a great way to incorporate protein into the ramen, and it also adds a bit texture and flavor.
How To Prepare Spicy Ramen
🌶 First, mix together the mayo, chili crunch, rice vinegar, sugar and saucy seasoning packet from the ramen. Tip: if your ramen doesn’t have that, you can add in 1.5 tbsp soy sauce + 2 tsp sesame oil. Adjust to taste.
🍜 Secondly, cook ramen to package instructions.
🌟 Then, add it to the sauce with 1/4 cup ramen water.
🍳 Then, poach the egg yolks in the simmering water for 15-30 seconds max if you want them runny.
🌿 Lastly, top the ramen with the yolks, more chili oil and the dry seasoning packet from the ramen. You can also add dry scallions.
Substitutions and Variations
- You can use any brand of ramen you like.
- You can leave the poached eggs out if you prefer.
