5 Creative Ways to Cook Instant Ramen | NYT Cooking

I made beef stroganoff with ramen. Delicious!

There's nothing better than ramen! The chicken flavor is my favorite, and I like it with cheese, two boiled eggs, green onions, and hot sauce.
But now you gave me other ways to try it! Thank you, Eric!

imported scallions?

Is this guy gay or is my gaydar off?

Stop. Turj thr PLATE and NOT the noodle....😮... game changer....🎉

I'm definitely gonna try that tofu bok choy one. Also shout out to cilantro/haters, I can't help that it tastes so weird to me 😢

I guess I'll be having ramen week next week

That's my kind of carbonara, right there. The Italian recipe is such a fussy, fussy dish! I would much prefer to fry an egg over easy to have with it (I know you did sunny side up, but I prefer to have all the white cooked).

Pour water out, half seasoning and add butter.

gochujang needs friends!!!

so many awesome tips! great job!!

I love Eric!!!

aldente with broth, slivered beef, bok choy, sriacha, fried egg green onion is my go-to

Im so glad I stumbled upon this after o on a Saturday. 🤩

Chefs kiss to the carbonara!

LOL, I eat the broken noodles too. I like to use ramen noodles in tangled noodle salads. I also like to add egg, bbq pork, cheese & chives to mine, plus a sesame oil & sriracha. I add the chives & sometimes mushrooms to the water immediately, they are perfect by the time the noodles are done. I add my egg at 2 minutes. When done, I always remove the noodles to my bowl, add my toppings, then pour the broth over to heat the meat and any other veggies I choose to add.

Your Carbonara version actually looked good, most of the "carbonara ramens" I've seen aren't like Carbonara at all. YUM!

I MUST try the gochujang noodles, it might be too spicy for me, but it looks so good. Thanks for sharing!

All the top comments are women or trans. Thank you nyt cooking

this is so cool! I never knew instant noodles were so versatile. I am French and I always thought "fond" meant what was at the bottom (fond) of the pot lol.

Ramen is soup and noodles. The noodles alone do not equal ramen.

I am a cardinal sin to noodles because I cook them incorrectly like some kind of spastic NPC, so thank you for your wise teachings.

I love all these versions using instant ramen for a quick and yummy lunch or dinner and can't wait to try them. Also, as a child growing up in the 80's, I love your t shirt!!

I love Eric, he seems so approachable, I feel like I could be friends with him lol! Love these ideas - all flavors that are up my alley in terms of taste and flavor. Gotta try those gochujang butter noodles.

All look delish thanks for demos will be trying some maybe at midnoc and loved the hand towel over shoulder action a good cook move 😻

That first way to fix the noodles looks easy enough for the super-lazy (me) and yummy. Will try ASAP.

The Carbonara looks wonderful.
Making that soon. Yum. Thanks!

OMG what a cutie!
sweet easy realistic affordable creative spin on noodles

Very basic method:
Make sure you have a bowl with a tight lid. Place 1-2 packets inside the bowl with a maximum of 1 seasoning-packet per 2 ramen packets.

Heat some water to a boil and then fill the bowl untill the ramen is submerged.

Place lid on the bowl and wait 5 minutes. Check the ramen and if some is still solid, stir and add some more hot water (doesnt have to be boiling now).

Place the lid back on for 2 minutes and then drain the broth until barely any is left (or drink the broth to said point).

Lastly, sprinkle ramen seasoning over your exposed ramen and enjoy! (Re-sprinkle when said sprinkled is gone).

Eric, as a follower of your YT channel for many years, I am so proud of you for following your heart of what you truly wanted to do. It's amazing to see you talk and cook food with so much passion...and I love hearing the stories; the stories that come with the dishes/recipes. I am still your fan. Love you much and I'm very proud of how much you've accomplished and how far you've come. <3

Live that pot. I love to leave the egg alone and let whites cook in one “clump” and the yolk is soft boiled. Mmmmm

Eric is great at short cut , semi prepared food you doctor up with a few fresh items. Some of his favorites are boxed Mac n’ cheese, Stovetop stuffing, and instant ramen packets! And he likes cooking hacks a lot! Not fine dining, but quick ways to satisfy hunger.

They all look delicious. I'll be right over. I especially like how you throw the towel over your shoulder. Every good cook does that thanks for the video 😻

gay.

But why did he drain the first broth… does he drink it separately?

I make boring ramen noodles straight out of the package. Now, that I seen this video I can try some of your recipes. I loved your way of talking to us viewers, because it was something I haven't seen much of on other video's. Thanks for that! Great job and looking forward to more video's with you in them.

Tuesdays are reserved for Tacos! Not spaghetti

A great cook never puts a towel on their shoulders,put it on your waist! 😊

I like to pour boiled water over the ramen noodles and leave them for 2-3 minutes before draining and then adding the seasoning powder and stirring it thru. Then I add a drained single serving can of tuna, some steamed mixed veges, and some grated cheddar and stir it all together, but I think a fried egg on top would be amazing too. Great on a budget and quick to fill an empty tummy

Surprised to find out gibon in Korean and 基本 in Chinese share same meaning and very similar pronunciation.

Every self respecting Asian kid grew up with instant noodles

What a boring chap!

One of my favorites is to cook the noodles as normal and as that is happening, sauté a mixture of stir fry vegetables in butter and scramble an egg. When the noodles are finished, drain and add the egg and noodles too the vegetables. Add the seasoning packet and toss. I then wrap in a tortilla and eat with hot sauce. It is filling and delicious. Optionally I will add shredded chicken if I have any as leftovers and will sometimes put shredded cheese on the tortilla and heat in the oven until melted before adding the noodle mixture. Eating with Cholula hot sauce is the best and is more of a treat than just a cheap meal...

I actually add stir fried veggies and omelet to my noodles. I make them separately before adding the veggies with the omelet on top. :)

You serve this to your friends after a big night, they will love you forever😂
