Ingredients
- 1 serving instant ramen approx. 3.88 oz / 110 gram per serving
- 1 tablespoon green onion finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon Regular soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Chinese black vinegar or rice vinegar/apple cider vinegar
- ½ teaspoon Gochugaru (aka Korean red pepper flakes/powder)
- ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
- ¼ teaspoon chicken bouillon powder (aka chicken stock powder)
- 1.5 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil
Instructions
- In a small pot filled with 2 ¼ cup or 550 ml water, bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Boil the instant ramen for 2 minutes until al dente. Then reserve ¼ cup of the noodle water for later.
- Strain the cooked ramen and transfer noodles to a heatproof bowl. Then add 1 tablespoon of the reserved noodle water to the bowl.
- Pour regular soy sauce, Chinese black vinegar, gochugaru, chicken bouillon powder, sesame seeds, minced garlic, chopped green onion on top and in the center of the noodles.
- Next heat vegetable oil on medium high heat in a small saucepan until it starts to smoke. Pour and aim the hot oil over the aromatics, not the noodles.
- Quickly mix everything together until noodles are coated in the chili oil. Feel free to add more noodle water to help loosen the noodles more. Enjoy as is or refer to the blog post for topping ideas.
