Ingredients

  • 1 (3.5 ounce) package — ramen noodles (flavor packet discarded)

  • 1 ¼ cups — water, divided

  • 1 tablespoon — sesame oil

  • 1 teaspoon — minced fresh ginger root

  • 4 cloves — garlic, minced

  • ½ teaspoon — Sriracha sauce, or to taste

  • 1 teaspoon — hoisin sauce

  • 1 pinch — red pepper flakes

  • 1 pinch — toasted sesame seeds

  • 1 pinch — black sesame seeds

Directions

  • Add water minus 2 tablespoons to a saute pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook ramen in the boiling water until softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Keep water at a simmer, using tongs to carefully flip noodles over. Noodles should be soft and come apart fairly easily.
  • Once water has nearly evaporated, add sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add reserved 2 tablespoons water, Sriracha, and hoisin sauce; mix well with noodles. Serve immediately topped with red pepper flakes, toasted sesame seeds, and black sesame seeds.
