Old man moment: I went to check out the prices on the cheap ramen recently so I could try out some of the recipes here on UA-cam, and I couldn't believe my eyes. Now here's the old man moment... Staring dumbfounded at the price, I said aloud, "I can remember when these things were only eleven cents!" (Does anyone remember hearing their grandfather saying something like that about candy or soda or whatever? Old man moment.)
@@christinastewart4893 The cheapest I remember candy bars like Snickers (I preferred Nestlé's Crunch) being is ten cents. But your dad is right - they were HUGE compared to today's candy bars (larger than today's so-called "giant size" candy bars). < Bwaaaah! > OLD MAN ALERT! OLD MAN ALERT! < Bwaaaah! > I remember finding a quarter when I was in 6th grade and trying to decide between buying a McDonald's hamburger or getting a DC giant size comic book. This was back when McDonald's used to run a commercial about buying a meal deal of a hamburger, fries, and a soda for a dollar and getting change back. Ask your dad if he remembers that. (BTW I chose the comic book because I could keep it to enjoy for years, reading it again and again, but the hamburger would only last for a couple of minutes. I was a nerd and comic book geek even way back then. Lol!)
Looks great! I buy a pound of fresh ginger at a time and immediatly freeze it. Then I take it out and use my microplane to grate it while still frozen. so good and no waste.
I lived in So Korea for a few years. Ramen there is a amazing meal. I also had Ramen in Japan. Ramen is an art form in both places. A protein is added. Usually egg. Veggies. spices. This idea of boiling the noodles and adding the sauce packet.. and done.. is a very Americanized version of ramen.
In the USA there are ramen restaurants that treat ramen as an art but for most Americans it's just a way to eat protein & veggies with carbs. Shin Ramyun is the best balance of taste, price, and health with added egg & veggies. It's worth the extra cost.
I haven’t bought ramen noodles forever because of the MSG and such high sodium content, but now with these wonderful recipes, I’m going try them! They look so delicious and easy to make! Thanks for sharing 😋
This is fantastic and should be reshown from time to time, these are delicious and very frugal. Plus the fact that you can add in anything in the fridge including proteins meats and eggs. The ideas are Neverending.
Have you tried stirring in a cup+ of broccoli in these dishes? Some bell pepper will also add some color to the dish as well as veggies. Thanks for the recipes.
@@blessedhappycatlady lol obviously she must call for take out food or has a chef. Or lots of money for high priced ingredients. I guess she doesn't have to live on a budget as for the rest of us we're thankful for any budget-friendly recipes that could feed a family
I made the first one, and it was good! My kids liked it too. I would double the sauce portion of the recipe. I didn't use the everything bagel on top cause I didn't have any on hand. But I'm going to use it next time, cause after tasting it, I can tell it would go really well with it. I did three ramens and I think 5 eggs. This served 3 people for $3.26 (1.09 per person ) Although the prices of food is going up, at least we can still be thankful there are still ways to eat cheap. 😊
I always have grr n onion growing on my kitchen window sill. I take the root left over from green onion and either put it in water or soil and they grow back. I also add hard boiled eggs and snow peas to ramen.
I don't know where you have been all my life, found you today, I'm a ramen fan, my husband isn't, but now that I have your recipes maybe he'll try it. Subscribed. Enjoyed this video.
I love recipes or throw together meals like this. I keep frozen shrimp on hand to toss into ramen with veggies I have on hand. I took a package of ramen to work the other night. I put it in a container with some frozen carrots and peas. I added the season packet and a heaping tablespoon of peanut butter to the bowl. When I was ready to eat it I added water to the bowl and cooked it in the microwave. It might not sound good but it was delicious. I will be making it again. I am planning on adding cooked chicken to the next one I make. There are so many different yet delicious foods you can add into ramen to make it a meal. Looking forward to more videos. Thanks for the great ideas.
lol I've been using this style of recipe for decades. So versatile and adaptable to what you have in your cupboard. Glad to see I'm not alone. great ideas Maria. I really like the fact that you explained the egg thickening the broth and adding to the overall flavour (brit) Nice work :-)
I love adding a raw or soft boiled egg to ramen - the egg yolk makes the broth so rich. Cubed tofu is anther cheap and very easy way to add protein. Thanks for sharing these recipes!
Maria you are awesome at picking recipes! We would especially love the 2nd and 3rd recipes. Its great you offer different foods to your kids. Expand those palettes now. 😋 Thank you so much and have a blessed week! 💖
Try a stir fry (with more onion, bell peppers carrots, cab, spinach, green onion, etc.), and then add in the cooked/strained noodles. Add in your soy/brown sugar garlic sauce, and a little sesame oil (optional).
"Swirl them up... just swirl em up"😅🤣😅how adorable are your babies?? Omg... so sweet!! Love these recipes! My son is a ramen freak... gonna try these out!! Thanks momma...I really love your videos!❤
I bought sooo much ramen when the lockdowns happened. It was so cheap on Amazon then. My husband and I were the only ones in our home at the time but we have two adult children and three grands so I had them in mind. Things changed over the next two years and our daughter came home to live with us. She loves asian food, as do I. So, I am grateful that the ramen I purchased is being used by both of us now and your recipes, especially the first one, look soooo yummy. Thanks for sharing those.
Hi. I am watching your video. If I can add to a recipe (one we eat at home): boil your water. Add your flavorings (here we keep it simple & use maggi chicken powder). After the water is in a rolling boil (you can add frozen veggies, onions etc @ this point) you drop in your noodles. Move them around so they are somewhat separated. Then crack how many eggs you want into the pot. Don't mix the egg up. When the yoke looks about done, take it off the heat and let sit for a few mins to settle. Garnish as desired. This is a soup. It's pretty filling. We have also used other types of pasta, too. I have to try the first recipe you presented. It looks really good.
Really like all of your recipes. I make my own recipe by using the ramen noodles and the seasoning packet plus I'll add either a chicken bouillon Cube or a beef bouillon Cube depending on if I'm using chicken packets or beef packets. Then when it's about ready I will add frozen shrimp and frozen veggies like carrots broccoli or any other veggies I have on hand. But I love it it's very filling and very fast and something hot that tastes so good it's like eating soup. You also have a new subscriber.
I keep a bag of frozen oriental veggies handy and add them to the boiling water to cook. Quick, easy, delicious. Add any leftover chicken or shrimp and dinner is done! Will have to try that egg trick. Yum!
This is my favorite video of yours! Thank you so much. I am making the beef stirfry for the 3rd time :-) I added cabbage and carrots to bump up the veggie factor, and it is dynamite. FYI, Aldi ginger paste in the tube works very well for me ;-)
I add a fresh chopped potato carrots broccoli and garlic with the water and the seasoning packet then I pour that over the Ramen and let it sit for a few minutes. Dinner!
I sort of liked ramen back in the distant past. Nice college student meal. I happened to look at the back of the package at what is in these noodles. I haven't had them in about 25 years since.
A packet of Ramen noodles is super handy when traveling because you can make it in your hotel/motel room in/with the kettle. Great when you’ve traveled to a different time zone and you wake up starving before/after food outlets are open.
I love your new eye glasses Tess ! Very pretty ! I use brown paper grocery bags for wrapping gifts. I have the most boring looking gifts under the Christmas tree, lolol.
i use prediced jared onion an garlic minced when it comes to cooking plus i can use some of the juice from each to what im cooking an then add bottled water to replace what i used
New sub here. Thanks for sharing these fast and tasty recipes. And I agree about your sentiments regarding ramen and onions. My family and I love the extra onions!
I like ramen so I eat it on the regular. My favorite is what I call fake pho that sounds a lot like your stir fry beef. I use minced onion and 1/3 the flavor packet (I started doing this for less salt 40 years ago, now it's just a habit!) and enough water to almost the top of the noodles. I cover and microwave for 90 seconds. While that is going, I slice up a couple of regular lunch meat roast beef pieces. At the ding, I turn over the ramen with a fork, put the beef on and I add cashews. They're not in pho, I just like the hit of flavor. I then cover again and do another 90 seconds. I do this with ham lunch meat too. One can add veggies too. Anything that will steam in 3 minutes will be done by the end. Broccoli, edamame or asparagus would be my choices.
@@AngieWy be aware.. still tons of sodium. they do make "lower" sodium ramen.. still really salty. If you're really in need of low, they do make no sodium bouillon.. make rice with that. Or get some other kind of noodles. I once found some really tasty low salt noodles at trader joe's.
Thank you so very much for your truly great ideas. They all look delicious & very easy. You made me think of other items to add on top of what you added.
Wow! Where have you been all of my life?? Just teasing but thanks for these recipes…so simple but for some reason never thought of improving a pkg of ramen…have even felt a little guilty for fixing and eating such “college” food…no longer!!😘😘
Fantastic ideas, Maria. Ones I would actually serve to guests!!..I guess you know this but I use kitchen shears to cut my green onions. Easier for me. Thrilled to see how the eggs turn out. Thank you!!
The ramen that are packaged with the seasoning separate just needs about 1/4 of the seasoning to taste good ( cuts way down on the salt ) just add fresh or canned veggies. I also take the cheap pot pies ( about 1$) and add 1/2 to 3/4 of a can of mixed vegetables , face it your just buying crust and gravy )but oh so tasty )
I buy the hot and spicy chicken flavored ramen, and make that as directed. Then I add to a large skillet which I have stir-fried a frozen bag of mixed stir-fry vegetables. Even though some don't do well with spicy food, after adding to the entire bag of mixed vegetables it is not so spicy but has a very good flavor. Simple easy and looks beautiful with green and white and orange vegetables.
I like to add water chestnuts to my raman noodle recipes. PS. I use my garlic press because it is an incredible invention and mincing garlic is no fun.
I sub’d. With COVID & staying home more & cooking three meals a day you run out of ideas so these look great! Imma try all three. I can see adding spinach leaves to the third one, yum! TFS 💕
that looks amazing with a bit of parm sprinkled on top or a lot yummy love instant ramen noodle, I do throw the packets away those are deadly and add stuff
Ha I just made a comment on one of your recent videos about ramen and then I found this video. I'm new to your channel and I'm enjoying looking through them. I'm just trying not to get hungry while I watch because it's 4am. Lol
I noticed in the 3rd video, cutting board was moving around, to stop that from moving while cutting put wet towel underneath and board will stay still( I use a separate Clean White Wash Cloth for keeping my boards still)
Put a twist of citrus 🍊 juice, protein, vegetables and you have a complete meal. E.g. coconut milk, lime juice, peanut butter and scallions makes a mock Tai version!
I just recently found out that you dont even need to peel your garlic to do the garlic press you just put it in there and it makes for easier clean up.
We didn’t have ramen when I was in college the first time. Later when I was in the Air Force I was stationed in Japan. There I was dating the widow of an Airman who had died in a plane crash a couple of years earlier. She was a fantastic cook, and the one who introduced me to ramen. When I came back to the States she sent a package of ramen with me, and the customs inspector in California asked me what it was! Ramen was one of the things that seemed to follow me home, and soon it was everywhere.
To make this even cheaper try adding TVP that is rehydrate. TVP is super cheap. You can also take your ground meat and nix with pureed onion and broil it flipping once and serve with rice. It's called Chelo Kabob. It's an Iranian kabob.
Old man moment:
I went to check out the prices on the cheap ramen recently so I could try out some of the recipes here on UA-cam, and I couldn't believe my eyes.
Now here's the old man moment...
Staring dumbfounded at the price, I said aloud, "I can remember when these things were only eleven cents!"
(Does anyone remember hearing their grandfather saying something like that about candy or soda or whatever? Old man moment.)
Too funny 😂
Yes!!!
My dad said a snickers candy bar was 5 cents when he was a kid. And that it was HUGE lol 😆
@@christinastewart4893
The cheapest I remember candy bars like Snickers (I preferred Nestlé's Crunch) being is ten cents. But your dad is right - they were HUGE compared to today's candy bars (larger than today's so-called "giant size" candy bars).
< Bwaaaah! >

I remember finding a quarter when I was in 6th grade and trying to decide between buying a McDonald's hamburger or getting a DC giant size comic book.
This was back when McDonald's used to run a commercial about buying a meal deal of a hamburger, fries, and a soda for a dollar and getting change back.
Ask your dad if he remembers that.
(BTW I chose the comic book because I could keep it to enjoy for years, reading it again and again, but the hamburger would only last for a couple of minutes. I was a nerd and comic book geek even way back then. Lol!)
My dad tells me he pumped gas at a full service station for 35 cents a gallon. Granted, that would have been 60 years ago.
Looks great! I buy a pound of fresh ginger at a time and immediatly freeze it. Then I take it out and use my microplane to grate it while still frozen. so good and no waste.
I definitely need to do that! Keep saying I will then…
I do this as well.
Wish Ramen noodles were diabetic friendly.
peel the ginger first then its easy to grate from the freezer

You can and should absolutely do that! It sounds delicious and healthy!
I use Ramen Noodles in my stir-fries. People make fun of using them but hey just as good as pasta and less expensive usually.
Absolutely!!
And they cook a lot faster when you don't have the time . LOL 😂
I’ve made many stir fry with the noodles.
Damn site faster.
I remember when they first came out , they were 10 cents a pack.
🍝
I will not touch this even if they! pay me!

I have them outside in large pot
They grow back over and over and are big and sturdy

Yum!
For some reason, when you say something will be “absolutely delicious” I always believe you! You sound so sure if it, calm and factual!! 😊

You should! I’ve already gone back!
I buy it already chopped up. Fresh, chopped garlic comes in 3 different size jars. Having this in my fridge means I am ready for any recipe.
If you have it , use it. Not doing so would be wasteful. I am sick of these over “enthusiastic” people.
I love all you do on your channel but my family and I can’t get enough of this one! Keep em coming Maria 👍🔥
💯❤️❤️
I put green onions and red pepper flakes and some Sesame oil. Yummy! If you put the roots of green onion in dirt they grow back fast.
Yum!

Chili crisp and green onions. Love ramen.

I buy the frozen chopped ginger in the Trader Joe's freezer section. Makes it super cheap and easy way to use ginger.

All your Ramen noodle dishes are amazing too with a few chopped peanuts over top if u have em on hand
I noticed in the 3rd video, cutting board was moving around, to stop that from moving while cutting put wet towel underneath and board will stay still( I use a separate Clean White Wash Cloth for keeping my boards still)
Put a twist of citrus 🍊 juice, protein, vegetables and you have a complete meal. E.g. coconut milk, lime juice, peanut butter and scallions makes a mock Tai version!
Sounds perfect!
One thing I do is venison, peas and bbq sauce mixed in the ramen and it tastes great too me. I'm sure stew meat would work the same too.
Oh yum!!!
I just recently found out that you dont even need to peel your garlic to do the garlic press you just put it in there and it makes for easier clean up.
Those all looked delicious. We love having ramen night at our house its my daughters favorite thing 😂❤
Fabulous! Enjoy it!
I need to try that!
Never knew that! Thanx! 👍
We didn’t have ramen when I was in college the first time. Later when I was in the Air Force I was stationed in Japan. There I was dating the widow of an Airman who had died in a plane crash a couple of years earlier. She was a fantastic cook, and the one who introduced me to ramen. When I came back to the States she sent a package of ramen with me, and the customs inspector in California asked me what it was! Ramen was one of the things that seemed to follow me home, and soon it was everywhere.
Oh that’s a really cool story! Ramen is always watching 👀🤣
Wonderful recipes. Thanks for sharing
Love your ideas!!!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for these recipes. I'm definitely going to try them. They look sooo delicious 😋
To make this even cheaper try adding TVP that is rehydrate. TVP is super cheap.
You can also take your ground meat and nix with pureed onion and broil it flipping once and serve with rice. It's called Chelo Kabob. It's an Iranian kabob.
Cool recipe idea!

Try a slice of American Cheese in your ramen with the egg in the broth. SO good!
Interesting!
Looks good. Do you have any suggestions for oyster sauce replacements? I'm allergic to all seafood. Thanks!
There are Asian companies that make a vegan oyster sauce, I think mainly made out of mushrooms.
I love my garlic press. It serves me well.
