Hello! I\u2019m back at it again with a recipe for Tiktok ramen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m pretty sure I\u2019m addicted to Tiktok and all the viral food hacks they have – I\u2019m HOOKED. This Tiktok ramen was too easy to not try. I had all the ingredients in the pantry so it made for a quick and satisfying lunch. It was delicious!<\/p>\n

Tiktok ramen is saucy, slightly sweet, full of umami, and really good. The flavors kind of remind me of an extra garlicky version of one of my all time favorite instant noodles: Indomie Mi Goreng, which is a take on Indonesian fried noodles.<\/p>\n

I feel like everyone has their own favorite way of making instant ramen. To be honest, I think instant ramen is one of the greatest inventions out there! The person who invented it, Momofuku Ando, a Taiwanese-Japanese inventor, has a quote that I love: Human beings are noodle beings.<\/em><\/p>\n

I am definitely a noodle being and all I want to do is eat noodles and live that noodle life.<\/p>\n

What is Tiktok ramen?<\/h2>\n

Tiktok ramen is where you use instant ramen noodles, ditch the seasoning packet, and make your own sauce. Unlike soup-y ramen, Tiktok ramen is a soup-less ramen, kind of like mazemen<\/a> or sesame noodles<\/a>. Ramen noodles are tossed in a garlic butter soy brown sugar sauce, cooked with an egg and finished with a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning.<\/p>\n

Does Tiktok ramen taste good?<\/h2>\n

In a word: YES! Tiktok ramen is sweet and savory with added richness from the butter and egg, and just a hint of spice. Super addictive.<\/p>\n

How to make Tiktok ramen<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Cook your instant ramen.<\/strong> Don\u2019t overcook it – mushy noodles are a travesty. Instant ramen should have an al dente bite. Pop the noodles into boiling water, set a timer, use a pair of chopsticks to loose the them up, and when the time is up, instantly drain them and set them aside. Pro tip: if you\u2019re a true noodle lover, cook the noodles slightly less than the suggested cooking time, they will cook up a bit more while you\u2019re tossing them in the sauce. This way you\u2019ll have perfectly al dente noodles.<\/li>\n
  2. Make the sauce.<\/strong> In a pan, heat up the butter over low heat. Add the garlic and cook until soft. Stir in the crushed red pepper, then the brown sugar and soy sauce.<\/li>\n
  3. Toss.<\/strong> Add the drained noodles to the pan, turn up the heat, and toss to coat.<\/li>\n
  4. Cook the egg.<\/strong> Push the noodles to one side and add an egg to the pan and scramble until just set.<\/li>\n
  5. Serve.<\/strong> Place the noodles in a bowl and finish with sliced scallions and everything bagel spice. Enjoy hot!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
