Spicy Sesame Garlic Ramen Noodles Recipes

SPICY SESAME RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Cook ramen noodles according to package directions. (approx. 2-3 minutes)
• While you wait for the water to boil, measure out all your ingredients. This recipe comes together fast!
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 TBSP of sesame oil and, once hot, add garlic and ginger. Sauté for about a minute, until tender and fragrant.
• Next stir in brown sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili garlic sauce (start with 1 tsp and add extra to taste) and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
• Drain noodles and add to the skillet. Mix well with a fork or tongs and add an extra drizzle of sesame oil and/or chili garlic sauce to taste. I added 3-4 tsp of chili sauce total since I like it spiiiicy!
• Top with green onion and sesame seeds. For even more heat, add some optional crushed red pepper flakes. Enjoy hot.

SESAME-GARLIC RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Add water minus 2 tablespoons to a saute pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook ramen in the boiling water until softened, about 3 minutes.
• Keep water at a simmer, using tongs to carefully flip noodles over. Noodles should be soft and come apart fairly easily.
• Once water has nearly evaporated, add sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add reserved 2 tablespoons water, Sriracha, and hoisin sauce; mix well with noodles. Serve immediately topped with red pepper flakes, toasted sesame seeds, and black sesame seeds.
