Here is what I do. Get some frozen veggies and start boiling them in a pot.
take the ramen and crush it in hte bag into smaller chunks.
put the noodles in a large cup, then dump the seasoning on them in a pile.
add some butter
once veggies are boiling, dump in water to cover noodles, spoon out veggies to cover noodles and then add water to cover veggies and let stand 5-10 min until desired temperature.

Time for a bump. My local Chinese supermarket was selling these Japanese things today:
Chicken flavour, and massive too. With 3 packs of goodies: MSG Overdose, Dried Veg and Oil. Mmm oil.
After adding hot water a piece of magical mystery meat appeared:
Nice long noodles:
And finished:
Well that was one big meal and it filled me up. More like bucket ramen than a cup. Even though its Japanese they seem to be available from import places both here in the UK and the US. So if you see one, go buy it.

We get a lot of brands like that tooatf487 wrote:Well, I know we get these Ramen products that make it look like you're having an actual meal; on the package they include meat and vegetables and make it look almost like a pasta.
When you open it up, it is just a block of normal ramen in a microwavable tray.

Huge bump, but is it possible to buy dry ramen bricks from a bulk store or a similar shop? Like, if say you were completely broke and wanted to avoid the individual packages but wanted to make your own instead...
Any ideas?
I basically want to do something like that, though I doubt I will use the veggies every time. I am a student who is on a limited income after all. I simply can't justify the relatively high cost of noodle cups/packets when a portion of ramen five to 10 times larger than the packaged ramen would probably cost the same if it were bough in bulk.greay wrote:I make ramen stir-fry a bunch. I never use the seasoning packets.
My favorite recipe lately is chili lime. Stir-fry all the veggies with chili, garlic (and sometimes a little basil), throw in the noodles, and squeeze half a lime over it. Add a little bit of soy sauce, but not much.
Any ideas?

I think they probably only sell ramen in packages/bowls, which is something I don't really want, since it's so wasteful, and a pinch of chili powder, some garlic, onions, lime and oil will make a much better and healthier addition to the noodles. Besides you need a membership for Sams club, something most college students around here can't afford.Sir C.A.T wrote:Sams Club?

The noodles in Ramen are packed with so many preservatives you may as well just eat stringed Styrofoam. Just buy a box of good noodles or even make your own and realize you've been missing out on 14 times better food all these years.
Me, I just drive a minute down the road and pay 150 yen for fresh made from scratch Ramen.

Lately I've been eating the Hot & Spicy Chicken Picante Maruchan noodles. I usually put the brink in a pan, fill the water just above it, add corn and peas, then add a ton of pepper and tobasco sauce. I then boil it so everything absorbs the the spices and then mix the the pack and eat. It is quite good, and usually really spicy. I'm generally more of a fan of curry type spicy food, but I can't seem the find the curry chicken packets anywhere so this has to do.

I like curry style food too. Do you put the flavour packet in or not?Thomas wrote:Lately I've been eating the Hot & Spicy Chicken Picante Maruchan noodles.

Yeah, since it has a bunch of red pepper pieces in it and adds extra zing. I'd probably not put it in if we had any in th house.ace wrote:I like curry style food too.
