Notes

  • Make it a Meal - Adding extras on top like chicken karaage, miso glazed salmon or pork gyoza can make it go even further.
  • Buttered Corn – Up the corn ante and dry fry the kernels for a few minutes to give them a little char before adding a tablespoon butter to coat them. Then add them to the top of your ramen for an extra flavour burst!
  • Assembling - Put all your toppings on just before you serve for the best presentation.
