TikTok Ramen is a viral, savory twist on instant noodles featuring a quick, flavorful sauce made with butter, soy sauce, garlic, and brown sugar. It’s simple, customizable, and ready in minutes for a crave-worthy meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 pack instant ramen noodles (seasoning packet discarded)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon everything bagel seasoning (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onions (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Boil ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and reserve a small amount of the cooking water.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add garlic and cook for 30–60 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Stir in soy sauce, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes. Let the sauce bubble and slightly thicken for about 1 minute.
  4. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss to coat. Add a splash of reserved noodle water to help the sauce stick.
  5. Push the noodles to one side of the pan. Crack in the egg and gently scramble until cooked. Mix into the noodles.
  6. Serve hot, topped with everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, and green onions if desired.

Notes

  • Use garlic powder if fresh garlic is unavailable (1/4 tsp per clove).
  • Brown sugar can be substituted with white sugar, honey, or maple syrup.
  • Double the recipe easily for two servings—just adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Customize with add-ins like cheese, tofu, or veggies.
