Ramen is a popular dish eaten in East Asia, however due to growing popularity of Japanese, Chinese and Korean cuisine in the west, ingredients to create your very own ramen has become much easier to find.
This is my version of a ramen noodle soup dish. You don't necessarily have to use the toppings I did to "load" the noodles - you can try anything you fancy!
I hope you enjoy this dish as much as I do :)
INGREDIENTS
- Pack of instant noodles (any flavour - I used Lucky Me's Filipino "Beef na Beef" noodles)
- A packet of frozen Chinese dumplings (you can make them yourselves too, but this is a "quick" recipe so...I went frozen :))
- Water
- Spinach (torn into small, edible pieces)
- Courgette (sliced)
- 1 egg
- Sliced sausage (I used Matterson's "horse-shoe" sausage for this recipe).
RECIPE
1. Boil water in a saucepan. Make sure you only add enough to cover the instant noodles, as the water will become the soup base.
2. In a separate frying pan, heat a bit of oil (equivalent to 2 squirts of Fry Light) and place 3 frozen dumplings in to cook. Follow instructions on the packet to cook the dumplings. Once these are cooked, leave to one side.
3. Place the instant noodles into the saucepan of boiling water. Cook for 2 minutes, then add the seasoning (which comes with the instant noodles). Mix the noodles so that the seasoning spreads throughout.
4. Crack an egg into the noodles and place a lid on the saucepan. Allow to cook for a further 1 minute, until the egg has poached, but the yolk is still soft.
5. Transfer the noodles, soup and egg carefully into a bowl. Be sure not to break the egg!
6. Time to add the load onto the noodles! Place the cooked dumplings onto the top of the noodles. Once this has been done, neatly add the torn spinach, sliced sausage and courgettes.
7. ENJOY!!
