Ingredients
Aside from your dependable microwave oven, of course, microwave ramen only requires two simple ingredients. They are available online and in almost every grocery store:
Use any brand of ramen or ramen noodle soup. Any instant noodle is fine, but we typically purchase Maruchan or Top Ramen.
You can also use chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth in place of water. Whenever I make ramen stir-fries or soup, I like to use broth.
You will need a microwaveable bowl to cook the ramen. Since the bowl gets hot, I also advise using hot mitts, oven mitts, or pot holders to keep your hands safe.
Variations
Again, removing the seasoning packet and replacing it with your own preferred flavors is the best way to upgrade instant ramen.
To the noodles, we like to add a little bit of butter and olive oil. We also include a small amount of Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Add some soy sauce, garlic powder, sesame oil, ginger, onion powder, and rice vinegar to the noodles if you want some Asian flavors. For more umami flavor, you can also include finely chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
However, you can really include anything you like, including hot sauce, hoisin sauce, Sriracha, Spam, bean sprouts, and soft-boiled eggs.
You may have seen Kylie Jenner’s well-known ramen recipe on social media, in which she cooks her ramen in a small saucepan with an egg that has been beaten raw. The egg won’t properly cook in the microwave, so this won’t work.
However, if you choose to do this, feel free to cook the egg separately and top the microwave noodles with it.
