Description
A creamy and spicy fusion ramen dish combining Korean Buldak carbonara noodles with a rich, velvety sauce made from egg, milk, cheese, and savory bacon.
Ingredients
- 1 package Buldak Carbonara ramen noodles
- 1 slice havarti cheese (about 30 g)
- 4 slices turkey bacon or beef bacon, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 large egg, whisked
- 1/2 cup whole milk (120 ml)
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
- 2 cups water (for boiling noodles)
Instructions
- Bring water to a boil and cook ramen noodles for 4–5 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside, reserving seasoning packets.
- In the same pan, cook chopped turkey or beef bacon over medium heat until crispy.
- Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the milk and stir gently.
- Add the cooked noodles and ramen seasoning packets, mixing well.
- Reduce heat to low and slowly pour in the whisked egg while stirring continuously to create a creamy sauce.
- Stir in black pepper.
- Place the havarti cheese on top, cover, and let it melt for about 2 minutes.
- Once creamy and fully combined, remove from heat and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use less of the spice packet for a milder dish.
- Stir continuously when adding egg to prevent scrambling.
- Add vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for extra nutrition.
- Substitute havarti with mozzarella or cheddar if preferred.
- Add a splash of milk when reheating to restore creaminess.
- Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored up to 2 days.
- Avoid overheating when reheating to keep sauce smooth.
