Ramen Fried Rice recipe—perfect for students or anyone who wants a quick, easy meal alone!
Before opening the ramen packet, crush the noodles into small pieces, transfer to a bowl, and soak with just enough hot water to cover the noodles.
Finely chop the green onion and beat the eggs in advance so they're ready when needed.
Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the green onion and sauté until the scallion oil becomes fragrant.
Push the green onion to one side of the pan, pour in the beaten eggs, and scramble. Then add the instant rice and the soaked noodles (including the water).
Increase to high heat, add 1 tablespoon of ramen soup base, and stir-fry quickly until all moisture evaporates and the rice becomes fluffy.
Turn off the heat and drizzle 0.5 tablespoons of sesame oil, mixing it in with the residual heat for a savory finish.
