Ramen stir-fry step-by-step recipe with photos.
About this recipe
Ramen is thick Japanese noodles made with wheat flour and has a soft and chewy texture. They are great to make soups and stir-fry. Ramen stir-fried with vegetables and a few sauces can be great for a quick meal. As with any stir-fry recipe, it is important to keep all the ingredients prepped and ready before you start cooking. It is also important to stir-fry on high heat so that the veggies retain their crunch. Keep a close eye on it while cooking to make sure they don’t burn and at the same time don’t turn mushy.
The star of the dish is a simple stir-fry sauce I make. It lifts the dish many folds and makes it taste so different from regular noodles/chow mein. Do try it and let me know your feedback.
This delicious ramen stir fry tastes best when served with chilli paneer / chilli chicken.
