Ingredient Notes
You’ll need 1 cup of cooked ramen noodles, preferably a plain style without flavor packets. The 2 tablespoons of soy sauce adds a rich umami kick. For the protein, use 1 pound of eggs for a fluffy, hearty omelette. Finally, 1/2 cup of finely chopped green onions brings freshness and crunch. You can substitute ramen with any quick-cook noodles or add cooked vegetables for variety.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Stir in the cooked ramen noodles and green onions gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with oil. Pour the egg-noodle mixture into the skillet.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges begin to set, then carefully flip to cook the other side for another 5 minutes until golden brown.
Things I’ve Learned
Make sure your skillet is adequately heated before adding the mixture to prevent sticking. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a pan on low heat to maintain texture. You can prep the ramen and chop the green onions ahead of time for a speedy breakfast!
