What can I add to ramen noodles to improve taste?

Question

Should I add ham or onions? Is there anything I can add?

Answer 1

cook eggs into it, like egg drop soup

cook the noodles, drain the water, use half the seasoning, add onion, and a can of chicken breast or tuna, break potato chips on top, bake it if you are able... ta da: casserole, adding some peas also helps

Answer 2

I have a way that everyone seems to love. I do, however, rarely make is as it isn't the healthiest. :) 1) Take the noodles, break in half lengthwise. (Save the 'seasoning packet' for something else.. IE: When you are making a few gallons of from scratch chicken broth, or rub on a chicken with EVOO before baking, also putting it with raw veg inside the cavity of the bird) Boil the noodles for 2 to 3 minutes I usually use a sauce pan) and drain in a sieve. Return sauce pan to stove and slowly melt equal amounts of butter and EVOO. Add shaved carrot curls, celery, garlic, and onions (powered versions of celery salt, garlic and onion powder are fine). Once the carrots are softened, toss the noodles back in and saute. Add teriyaki, soy, and (if you have) oyster sauce. Saute together quickly, plate, sprinkle with green onion and serve and enjoy. - If desired, before doing the carrots and spices, add any meat and saute (pork ribs rock!), once almost done throw in other veggies such as green beans, cabbage, well any thing until almost softened, then add the carrots and spices. Another (albit not healthly again!) way is to just boil the noodles as above, drain, tsauteutee some butter with EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) and spice packet, throw the noodles back in and YUM! (a treat every great once in a while.. more of a 'comfort food'! :)

Answer 3

In place of water, cook the noodles in a chicken or beef stock (dependant on type of ramen meal you are making).

If you are indeed on a ramen budget, you can get chicken or beef boulion cubes in place of the real stuff.

Answer 4

Depending on the flavor, I add the same type of meat. A slice of lunch meat cut up makes a big difference, and don't forget some cheese.

Answer 5

First thing to remember:

RAMEN NOODLES ARE NOT FOOD. They are merely packing material.

Also remember that since Ramen Noodles are not food, don't waste real food trying to improve or disguise the taste.

Just throw in some pepper sauce and eat it fast so you won't taste it for long.

Eating Ramen Noodles is better than starving, but not much better.

Answer 6

A lot of my friends like onions or sausage. Plus cheese makes everything better.

Answer 7

cooked meat, vegies, touch of sessame seed oil (a little goes a LONG way!), little soy sauce, sprouts, hot sauce, chopped hard boiled egg. In short, anything you'd add to soup which is already cooked or cooks in 3 minutes.

Answer 8

Hot Shots pepper, or South West seasoning.

Answer 9

Ginger

Answer 10
