Ramen Stir Fry offers a melody of buttery noodles with a smooth undertone of miso. Savory fans of garlic and salt should use the higher measurements of soy sauce and garlic.
In Japan, it’s a compliment to the chef to slurp noodles. So, if you catch your family or friends slurping the ramen stir fry, you know you are a ramen noodle maestro!
