Super Simple Microwave Packaged Ramen Hack
How to Cook Packaged Ramen Easily and Quickly in the Microwave
Specially developed for elementary school students who might struggle with using a stove, this super simple microwave recipe allows anyone to enjoy delicious packaged ramen. Even cooking beginners can achieve perfect ramen without any failures!
Essential Ingredients- 1 pack of ramen noodles
- Water (amount indicated on the ramen package or adjusted to your preference)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare a deep bowl or container that is safe for microwave use. It should be large enough to allow the ramen to cook properly.
Step 2
Place the packaged ramen into the prepared container. Carefully break the noodles into four pieces and add them along with the powder and dried vegetable soup packets. (If the noodles are already in a circular shape, you don’t need to break them.)
Step 3
Now it’s time to add the water. Refer to the recommended water amount on the back of the ramen package, or adjust it to how you usually like your ramen. The amount of water significantly affects the taste, so be mindful when adding it.
Step 4
Cover the top of the container with plastic wrap to prevent splattering. Once covered, use a fork or chopsticks to poke several small holes in the wrap. These holes will allow steam to escape safely during cooking.
Step 5
Now, place the wrapped container into the microwave and heat for about 4 minutes. Cooking times may vary slightly depending on your microwave’s wattage, so it’s a good idea to check if the noodles are cooked through. (Typically 4 minutes for a 700W microwave)
Step 6
Your delicious ramen is ready! Be careful as it will be hot, then enjoy. If needed, gently loosen the noodles with chopsticks before eating for an even better experience.
