Ingredients

Adapted from: NY Times Recipe from Roy Choi, adapted by Jeff Gordinier

  • 1 pack (130g) Shin Black ramen (use noodles and seasoning packets)
  • 1 large egg, broken into a small bowl but not beaten
  • ½ tsp (2g) unsalted butter
  • 2 slices American cheese
  • ¼ tsp (1g) toasted sesame seeds
  • ½ scallion, green part only, thinly sliced on the bias

Directions

  1. Bring 2.5 cups of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the noodles and cook for 2 minutes. Add in the seasoning packet, stir, and continue to cook for another 30 seconds.
  2. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully add the egg. Do not stir; pull the noodles over the egg and let sit for one minute to poach.
  3. Carefully transfer everything to a serving bowl. Add the butter, cheese and sesame seeds and mix. Garnish with the scallions and enjoy.
