Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • 1 packet instant ramen noodles
  • 3 tbsp breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 5 cloves sliced garlic
  • 3 anchovy fillets
  • 3 scallions
  • 10 whole black peppercorns
  • Olive oil, enough to coat
  • A pinch of crushed pepper
  • A little grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 knob of butter

Recipe 🍳

  1. Heat olive oil in a pan over low heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Once lightly browned, add breadcrumbs and toast together to create a savory garlic crumble. Set aside.
  2. Slice the garlic cloves uniformly. Lightly crush the whole peppercorns with the back of a knife. Lightly chop the anchovy fillets. Chop the scallions, separating the white and green parts. (Score the white parts to help them cook evenly).
  3. Add enough olive oil to coat the pan. Sauté the sliced garlic until golden brown. Add the crushed peppercorns and the white parts of the scallions and sauté until fragrant.
  4. Once the scallion whites are wilted, add crushed pepper and stir-fry briefly. Turn off the heat temporarily.
  5. Boil water and cook the ramen noodles until they are just loosened, not fully cooked. Drain, reserving the noodle water.
  6. Turn the heat back on in the pan. Add the anchovies and stir-fry. Add the cooked noodles and stir-fry together for 1 minute.
  7. Gradually add reserved noodle water while shaking the pan to emulsify the oil and water, creating a sauce. Add grated Parmesan cheese for seasoning.
  8. Turn off the heat completely. Add a knob of cold butter and stir until it melts from the residual heat, thickening the sauce.
  9. Serve the noodles in a bowl, pour over the sauce, and garnish with the green parts of the scallions, grated Parmesan cheese, and a generous amount of the prepared garlic crumble.
  1. Toast minced garlic and breadcrumbs in olive oil to make garlic crumble.
  2. Prepare garlic, whole pepper, anchovies, and scallions by slicing and chopping.
  3. Sauté sliced garlic, whole pepper, white scallion parts, and crushed pepper in olive oil to create an infused oil.
  4. Boil ramen noodles briefly, drain, and reserve noodle water.
  5. Stir-fry anchovies and noodles in the infused oil, then add noodle water to emulsify the sauce.
  6. Turn off heat, add butter to thicken, then top with green scallions and garlic crumble.

Cooking tips 💡

  • When making garlic crumble, use low heat to gently toast the breadcrumbs and garlic. High heat can easily burn them, preventing even crispiness.
  • Adding cold butter off the heat at the end helps emulsify the sauce, preventing oil and water separation and creating a sauce that clings beautifully to the noodles.
