You want different?
« on: June 26, 2010, 03:08:44 AM »
I am the only person that I know of, outside my own family, who combines Ramen Noodles with Chili.

I cook the ramen on the stovetop as you normally would, except for I don't add the packaged seasoning until after I've drained most of the water.  I stir it up, drain the last bit of water and the noodles are good to go. 

But then I add a generous portion of hot chili from a can, usually the whole can.  This works especially good with Beef, Chicken and Oriental flavored ramen. 

Try it once.  It sounds terrible, but it tastes fantastic.

I add beanless chili with spaghetti sauce the spices in the chili goes really well with pasta, so ramen should  make sense.

if anyone want to make a quick spaghetti use udon noodles its va very good pasta and since it`s already soft it take no time to cook

If you add the seasoning to the water before boiling and use less water, the seasoning will be absorbed into the noodles better.

That's what I keep hearing, but once you've added the chili, having the spice still semi-powdered means it actually gets into the chili too, which tastes really good.
