Ingredients

• 1 packet instant noodles — personally, I recommend the pink Buldak

• 1 scoop mayonnaise

• 1 egg yolk

• 1 splash of soy sauce

• 1 fried egg, for topping (optional — personally, I don’t like fried eggs)

• Chilli oil, to taste

• Green onions, chopped

• Ramen cooking water

Instructions

1. Cook the noodles.
   Boil the instant noodles for 2–3 minutes. Do not cook them longer, or they’ll get too soft.

2. Make the sauce.
   While the noodles are cooking, add the Buldak sauce and seasoning packet to a bowl, along with:

   • 1 scoop of mayonnaise

   • 1 egg yolk

   • A splash of soy sauce

3. Add ramen water.
   Scoop some of the hot noodle cooking water into the bowl and stir everything together until you have a smooth, creamy sauce. This is the secret sauce move.

4. Add the noodles.
   Drain the noodles and toss them into the bowl. Mix thoroughly until every noodle is coated in the sauce.

5. Top it off.
   Add a fried egg if you’re into that, then finish with chilli oil and chopped green onions.

6. Eat immediately.
