Notes

Cook noodles for no more than 2 minutes to avoid overcooking. Rinse under cold water immediately.

You can substitute ramen with udon noodles or pasta of your choice.

For a soupy version, add chicken stock before the noodles and bring to a boil. Then add ramen and serve quickly.

Avoid cooking noodles in stock directly to prevent cloudiness and excess starch.

Garnish with sesame oil, sesame seeds, and chopped green onions.
