Viral 10 Minute TikTok Ramen Recipe

This recipe is Viral 10 Minute TikTok Ramen, and it has quickly become one of those meals I come back to again and again. It is simple, comforting, and feels like a little break in the middle of a busy day.

I like making this when I do not have much time or energy, but I still want something warm and homemade.

This is the kind of recipe that works perfectly for weeknights, quick lunches, or those evenings when you open the fridge and feel a bit stuck. Everything comes together fast, and most of the ingredients are probably already in your kitchen.

It is not fancy food, but it is satisfying and cozy, which is sometimes exactly what dinner needs to be.

Why You’ll Love This Viral 10 Minute TikTok Ramen?

  • It comes together fast, even on the busiest nights
  • You only need one pan after boiling the noodles
  • The ingredients are simple and easy to find
  • It feels cozy without being heavy
  • It works well as a quick lunch or dinner
  • Cleanup is easy and stress-free

What Kind of Ramen Noodles Should I Use?

Ingredients

Plain ramen noodles work best here but you can use the noodles from instant ramen packets, just skip the seasoning packet. Fresh ramen is fine too if that is what you have.

I usually use regular dried ramen because it is affordable and easy to keep on hand. Any ramen noodles that cook quickly will work.

Options for Substitutes

  • Use honey if you are out of brown sugar
  • Use olive oil if you do not have butter
  • Use green onions or chives if scallions are not available
  • Skip the egg if needed, or cook it separately
  • Leave out the red pepper flakes if you prefer mild food

Watch Out for These Mistakes While Cooking

  1. Do not overcook the noodles at the start.
  2. They will cook a little more in the pan later.
  3. Keep the garlic moving so it does not burn.
  4. When scrambling the egg, keep the heat medium so it stays soft.
  5. Drain the noodles well so the sauce does not get watery.

What to Serve With Viral 10 Minute TikTok Ramen?

  • This ramen is great on its own, but you can add simple sides.
  • A small cucumber salad works nicely.
  • Steamed veggies like broccoli or carrots are easy options.
  • You can also serve it with a simple side of rice.
  • A soft-boiled egg on the side is nice if you want more protein.

Storage Instructions

  1. This ramen is best eaten right away.
  2. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  3. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave.
  4. Add a small splash of water to loosen the noodles while reheating.
  5. Freezing is not recommended because the noodles get too soft.
