Homemade Ramen Burger
This is my homemade take on the famous Ramen Burger by Keizo Shimamoto.
Ingredients
- 1 packet ramen noodles
- 1 egg
Burger ingredients
- burger patty
- curry powder, optional
- lettuce, tomatoes, spinach, etc
- bacon bits or bacon flavored Onion Crunch
- cheese slice, optional
- fried egg, Optional
Instructions
- Cook the ramen noodles according to instructions, I significantly reduced the seasoning powder so that the "bun" would not be too salty.
- Drain the noodles. Place noodles in a medium bowl and mix in an egg. thoroughly mix in the raw egg with the noodles so that all the noodles are coated. The egg is what is going to bind your noodle bun together.
- Split the ramen noodles in half. Pour into 2 large cylinders/ramekins that are about the size of a hamburger bun. Wrap plastic wrap over container and press down to firmly pack noodles. Add something on top to add a little weight. I added a tupperware bottom and then put a heavy can on top of that. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to let set.
- Meanwhile, heat up/cook your burger patty. I made a free-form patty with some ground beef, salt and curry powder to add some more Japanese flair. Heat up your frying pan with some oil. Flip over your ramen noodle container upside down so that the noodle bun slides easily into frying pan in one piece. Fry for a few minutes on both sides until noodles become slightly crispy.
- Add in patty and additional toppings of your choice.
