Indulgent Corn Cheese Ramen with a Cheesy Stretch
Don’t let those leftover corn kernels go to waste! This recipe transforms frozen or leftover cooked corn into a delightful ramen topping. We’ll add sweet corn kernels and a generous layer of melty cheese over your favorite instant ramen for a creamy, savory, and utterly satisfying meal. Feel free to choose any brand of ramen you prefer!
Ingredients- 1 packet of instant ramen (your favorite kind)
- 1/2 cup cooked corn kernels
- 1 egg (optional)
- 60-100g mozzarella cheese (adjust to your liking)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, carefully remove the kernels from your cooked corn. If you’re using canned corn, make sure to drain it well before proceeding.
Step 2
Bring water to a boil in a pot, using the amount specified on your ramen package. Once boiling, add the ramen noodles, soup base, and dried vegetable packet. Let it cook according to the package instructions. (Pro Tip: Using a wok can help ingredients mix well and cook evenly, enhancing the flavor!)
Step 3
When the ramen is about halfway cooked, crack an egg directly into the pot. This will add a richer, creamier texture to the broth. (Feel free to skip the egg if you prefer.)
Step 4
As the noodles reach their desired tenderness, let the broth reduce slightly so it becomes more concentrated. A slightly thicker broth at this stage will help the cheese meld beautifully.
Step 5
Now for the best part! Generously sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the ramen. Cover the pot or reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt into a glorious, stretchy blanket. Get ready for that irresistible cheesy pull!
Step 6
Once the cheese is perfectly melted, turn off the heat. Carefully transfer your delicious Corn Cheese Ramen to a serving bowl. Enjoy the delightful combination of popping corn and savory, gooey cheese!
