What is Tik Tok Ramen?

Tiktok ramen is basically instant ramen, minus the seasoning packet, made with a super easy, homemade sauce, egg, and topped with everything bagel seasoning.

Ingredients needed

• Ramen – One package of ramen noodles. You don’t need the seasoning packet. Choose your favorite brand of instant noodles like Maruchan, Top Ramen, or even homemade ramen.
• Butter – A little unsalted butter to make the sauce.
• Garlic – Minced garlic is used for this recipe.
• Red Pepper Flakes – This adds a little heat. You can omit if you don’t like spicy food.
• Light Brown Sugar – A hint of sweetness to the dish.
• Soy Sauce – You can use regular soy sauce or low sodium soy sauce.
• Egg – I like making a scrambled egg but you can prepare the egg to your preference.
• Everything Bagel Seasoning – You might not think you need this extra spice but it really does add amazing flavor. There are many brands of this seasoning mix but you could also make your own.
• Green Onion – This is optional but I like the color it brings to the dish.

How to make Tik Tok ramen

Step one: Noodles – Begin by cooking the noodles. Be sure not to overcook them. They can be a little al dente because they will continue cooking in the sauce. Once they have finished cooking, drain off the water.

Step two: Sauce – Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Stir in minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes into the melted butter for 1-2 minutes. Stir in brown sugar and soy sauce.

Step three: Egg – Stir the cooked noodles into the sauce to coat. Push the noodles to the side of the pan and pour in the beaten egg. Cook the egg until fluffy and then stir in with the noodles to combine.

Step four: Season – Top the ramen with everything bagel seasoning and diced green onion.
