Ingredients

55g instant ramen noodles (we used chicken flavour)
2½ tbsp vegetable oil
2 eggs
2 spring onions, sliced
5g coriander, roughly chopped
crispy chilli oil, to serve

Method

STEP 1
Boil the noodles in plenty of salted water, reserving the seasoning packs. Once tender, drain thoroughly. Transfer the noodles to a bowl and mix with all the seasoning packs.
STEP 2
Heat the oil in a medium, non-stick, lidded frying pan. Once hot, gently lower the noodles into the oil, flattening them out with a spatula. Cook for 4-5 mins on a low-medium heat or until crisp on the bottom, then flip and cook on the other side until crisp.
STEP 3
Crack the eggs on top of the noodles and put a lid on. Cook for 3-4 mins or until the eggs are fully cooked but still have a runny yolk. Lift carefully onto a serving plate with a spatula or fish slice, allowing the cooking oil to drip off.
STEP 4
Sprinkle over the spring onions, coriander and chilli oil before serving.
