So, how's this the ramen hack, since there must be roughly a billion of them on YouTube? Okay, let's just say that this is the only one I've tried, at least!
I was running low on lunch food at the office - I do fix my own lunch, in various ways, in case I don't have some of the really good stuff with me (the delicious leftovers from a home cooked dinner, prepared by my very own chef). What I did have was mayo - not the US whole-eggs-style but made of yolks only - plus eggs and instant ramen noodles. Heck, why not.
Some garnish would have been great - and some garlic as well - but at least there was a bit of built-in garlic taste in the Sriracha clone that I used for additional oomph.
All in all, this weird combo does really work; it doesn't quite turn instant ramen into the culinary peak experience of a lifetime but you do get something quite a bit tastier than the bare bones bowl!
[UPDATE] The second time, I added spring onions that had been marinating overnight in my secret sauce (secret ingredients: Japanese soy, miso, sesame oil, lemon, chili, Hoisin sauce, Worcestershire sauce, ginger, maple syrup). A generous tablespoon of this combo went in together with the mayo in the beginning and then I garnished the works with some of the spring onions. The end result? Definitely yummy. I'd even say: the best instant ramen ever - and crazy cool.
