Description
TikTok Ramen is a quick and flavorful noodle dish made famous on social media. This easy recipe transforms instant ramen into a rich, buttery, sweet and savory meal with garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, and a perfectly scrambled egg.
Ingredients
- 1 package instant ramen (preferably Nong Shim, Samyang, or any Korean brand – without the seasoning pack)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon Everything Bagel Seasoning, or to taste
- 1 scallion, sliced (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain most of the water, leaving 1–2 tablespoons in with the noodles to prevent drying out.
- Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and stir until the garlic is soft, about 1 minute.
- Add the brown sugar and soy sauce. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the sauce becomes glossy.
- Add the cooked noodles and toss well to coat them in the sauce.
- Push the noodles to one side of the pan to make space for the egg.
- Add the lightly beaten egg and scramble until cooked to your desired doneness.
- Mix the egg with the noodles until fully combined.
- Transfer to a bowl and sprinkle Everything Bagel Seasoning on top. Garnish with sliced scallions if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes
- For extra protein, add cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
- If you like it spicier, add more red pepper flakes or a drizzle of chili oil.
- Sesame seeds or a splash of sesame oil can add extra flavor.
