try these. first one is a bowl type i think oil noodles or something similar. second one is by stove, but still instant. both are good.

[revat619]

+1 for that. You can make any ramen kick ass when you add stuff. Trust me, i'm cheap as hell and i do this all the time! hahaha Just get creative!

[sw20>>s14]

add some slabs of fried dace or eel and BAM! your done...if your tired of ramen; do udon...

[Jung918]

I usually add an egg and sometimes I will add a slice of cheese.

[Eternal_240Sx]

i usually add a chopped up sausage in mine.

[Phlip]

I will usually add canned tuna or that canned chunk chicken to mine... If I have a lot of time on my hands to get creative, I will use turkey sausage and a little cheese, or I will create something and season to taste.
... no preference on what brand of ramen to use, I use whatever food lion down the street has cheapest.

[publicenemy137]

i drop in an egg, some fried garlic, tomatos, and some slices of beef. a quick and good meal right there!

as far as a good ramen noodle brand, try kung fu noodles. They kick ass

[kazuo]

maruchan > *

There's also some dopeass Korean shit Safeway sells.. I forget the name unfortunately, I haven't been purchasing as much ramen as I normally do, since I have a bit extra cash to spend on food nowadays. :P

heh

I like boiling egg, chop it up then add it.. also chopped onion/celery, and sometimes thiny cut meat (like what they add to Pho).

[sw20>>s14]

add those slabs of fatty pork like real ramen...or try different soup bases...try the not "instant" types that are still relatively cheap and quick to make...like the packages of soba and udon...

ive gotten hooked on some rice noodles...i forgot the name, but its rice noodles so it takes literally a minute and a half...and the seasoning and oils come together to compliment the texture of the noodles just perfect...

Throw in hoisin sauce, sriracha hot sauce, hotdogs, eggs, crab meat, meat balls, and some beef.

add some curry :)

[SoSideways]

I love this brand noodles.

http://www.coles.com.au/images/cmi/library/ingredient/small/Nissin-Noodle-Sesame.jpg

Especially the sesame oil kind, the beef kind, and a few others.

When those noodles by themselves don't do it for me, I usually do it up HK style (am from HK so...). You can add some luncheon meat in there (spam for example), slices of ham, or sausages. Can also cook up some Chinese veggies (gai lan for example) and throw it in there.

Or, if you wanna try something different, you can pick up that Top Ramen stuff from wal-mart, they're like $0.13 a pack or something ridiculous. Get the Oriental flavor.

Now, just cook up the noodles, then strain it in a strainer so the noodles are "dry", then put the soup base in the bowl that you're gonna eat out of. Then throw the noodle into the bowl, and just keep folding/mixing the noodle up with the soup base, till the soup base is pretty much "dissolved" onto the noodles (you'll see that all your noodles are now dark instead of white'ish normal noodle color).

Now you can eat it. It's really salty this way, but it's so damn good... I introduced this method of cooking it to my gf like last week, now she can't get enough of it lol

[theicecreamdan]

I tried some pepperoni i had once, but it was gross pepperoni so it made gross ramen.

The best. Period.
Unfortunately it's totally impractical to buy in America. It's expensive in Japan which means super expensive here.

[91CRXsiR]

adding things to ur ramen is like cheating.. if i wanted to add REAL food the the noodles I can just make it from stratch just as easy.. but i do add an egg sometimes.. i just had a bowl right now in fact.

I've tried pretty much all the NONG SHIM lines.. that curry noodle looks good but i've never seen it for sale.

I have never tried panfrying it before i guess ill try that tonight.

keep em' coming

[zero.counter]

So....anyone with high-blood pressure should stay away right? INstant ramen was my thing, before I was diagnosed with HBP...:(

[smellslikecurry]

adding curry spices makes it taste pretty good...kinda spicey...sometimes i put in some pieces of baked chicken breast marinated with curry spices...goes down good...comes out burning :(

[95Blue240sx]

Explain this pan frying!! Do you mean to cook it then take the noodles out and fry it in oil?

[viscid240]

I toss in some soy sauce, a whole lemon or two, and some beer also adds to the flavor :rawk:

[SochBAT]

panfry, just cook it (throw in that awesomely powerful hot water), wait for it to cook, once its cooked, throw it in a pan with the seasonings of your choice on mild heat.

You can get pretty creative and create your own meals that TASTE AWESOME, sometimes.

[Edgar]

I tought it was all the same lol :)

[publicenemy137]

I tought it was all the same lol :)

nope, not all ramen noodles are built the same :yum: . I tried this one duck flavored Ramen soup one time, it kicked ass

[smellslikecurry]

[Edgar]

I never drink the water

[mixedwell]

my stomach hurts so bad from just reading this post. i think i might get an ulcer if i keep reading this shit. ahha....good times.

[tiggs]

Man after reading this thread last night I was super craving Ramen... But my father had already started making tacos.. I never pass up tacos..
Anyway
Today for lunch I decided to try the pan frying thing.. OMW I've never had such tasty ramen in my life. I didn't have anything extra to toss in it, not even soy sauce, but the roast beef flavor ramen I have and some vegetable oil, pan fried for a lil while (prolly too long actually it's kinda extra soft and such) just, wow.. haha. I'm going shopping later for other stuff I can start tossing in!
What types of oil do you usually pan fry it in? I'm not a big fan of olive oil so I was thinking of getting some peanut oil. Actually I think we have a 5 gallon jug of it for our turkey fryer, lol.

[ESone3]

that that shit has like 2000mg of sodium! But I still likes!

I stay og with the ICHIBAN!

[rancid240]

You know its quality ramen when the sodium intake is 120% of the recommended daily value :eek2:

[theicecreamdan]

the sodium is in the flavor packets right?
I usually only use half of those things

[95Blue240sx]

I used sesame oil last night and it tasted pretty damn good. The smell is better than the taste, but still good!

pAnFrY13d!!!!!111!

[SimpleS14]

Just had to bump this thread to say the panfry idea is a damn good one. Tried it with some cisco spray oil (what I had available), sausage, and seasoning. Very good for a cheap eat IMO.
