How to make sesame garlic ramen noodles

Step 1: Cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions, and discard the spice packet that comes with it.

Step 2: While the ramen noodles are cooking, mince up the fresh garlic. Once the ramen has finished boiling, drain it and set it aside.

Step 3: In a large skillet, heat the sesame oil.

Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it.

Step 4: Add in the brown sugar and soy sauce and whisk or stir until combined.

Step 5: Toss the cooked ramen noodles with the sesame garlic sauce and serve immediately.

How to serve

We love a simple garnish of fresh chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Chopped peanuts or siracha would be other yummy additions you could try!

I ate a big bowl of these for lunch today and they were so yummy! This one is definitely a keeper.

I discovered when I created my homemade stir fry sauce that sesame oil and soy sauce are the essential ingredients that you need when making takeout style dishes at home.
