Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pack (about 3 ounces / 85 grams) instant ramen noodles, discard seasoning packet
  • 2 large eggs, beaten lightly
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste) or any chili garlic sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey or brown sugar
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil

Instructions

  1. Boil the ramen noodles in a pot of water for 3-4 minutes according to package instructions, skipping the seasoning packet. Drain and set aside.
  2. While noodles boil, mince garlic, grate ginger, slice bell peppers, shred carrots, chop green onions, and beat eggs lightly with a pinch of black pepper.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil. Once shimmering, add garlic and ginger and stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add carrots and bell peppers to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften but remain slightly crunchy.
  5. Add the drained ramen noodles to the pan and stir well to combine and spread noodles to touch the pan surface to create crispy spots.
  6. In a small bowl, mix gochujang, soy sauce, sesame oil, and honey. Pour the sauce evenly over the noodles and vegetables and stir constantly to coat everything.
  7. Push noodles aside to make a well in the center of the pan. Pour in the beaten eggs and let sit undisturbed for 20-30 seconds, then gently scramble and fold eggs into the noodles.
  8. Sprinkle chopped green onions over the top and toss everything together once more. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  9. Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a wedge of lime or toasted sesame seeds.

Notes

If noodles feel dry during stir-frying, add a splash of water or broth to loosen the sauce. Use medium-high heat for crispy noodle edges. Be patient when scrambling eggs to avoid rubbery texture. Adjust spice level by varying gochujang or substituting with milder sauces. For gluten-free, use tamari and gluten-free noodles.
