Homemade Ramen Burger!!

2/16/2015

I have been stalking the ramen burger via social media pics for over a year now; sadly I have never been anywhere close enough to a restaurant or food truck that sells these delicious looking things- and I've never had a chance to try them! 

For my fellow ramen lovers who don't live in New York or L.A.-- I have figured out a way to make them at home.. and they are so good that you can even eat the ramen bun all by itself.

It's a overnight process, and it involves being extremely careful and patient... but so worth it!

Ingredients:
  • 1 package of maruchan chicken flavored  ramen noodles
  • 1 egg- whisked
  • 1/2 lb of ground meat
  • 1/2 tablespoon of Flavor God's everything seasoning
Optional:
  • 2 slices of extra sharp New York cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 10 small mushrooms
  • 1/2 small onion sliced jullienne style
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons of sweet chili sauce
Directions:
[Ramen bun prep]
  1. Bring 3 cups of water to a boil. While waiting, whisk an egg in a small bowl and set aside. Prepare two small bowls or ramekins for the ramen buns by spraying them with PAM. 
  2. Add the ramen noodles and seasoning package to the boiling water, stir, and boil for 5-6 minutes. Drain.
  3. Pour the whisked egg into the hot ramen noodles and mix by stirring, be sure that all the noodles have been coated with the egg. 
  4. Split the egg coated ramen noodles in half  and put each batch into a medium bowl so that the bottom layer of each bowl is covered with noodles. Press the noodles down so that the layer of noodles is even in each bowl. 
  5. Place a sheet of wax paper over each noodle layer, then place weight on top of each one. [I used heavy circle coaster.] 
  6. Refrigerate overnight, the noodles will need time cool down and stick together so that they become firm and take on a circular bun shape.

  1. Combine the Flavor God Seasoning with the ground meat by mixing in with a fork and then form the meat into a ball. Flatten the ball into a medium sized patty. [Remember: patties shrink when cooking so it's best to make it a tiny bit bigger than what you want.] Cook on medium flame until the inside looks medium rare. Cover with a lid, about 10 minutes on each side.
  2. While the burger is cooking chop the onion and combine mushrooms, chopped onion, 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil, and sweet chili sauce in a skillet and sauté for about 10-15 minutes. 
  3. Prepare a large skillet by coating with the rest of the olive oil, turn the heat to medium. 
  4. Carefully remove each ramen bun [I used a butter knife to detach the noodles from the bowl], and place on the hot skillet. Don't worry if the edges aren't perfectly even, that will be taken care of in a few steps. The key is to get the ramen burger transported quickly and carefully without it falling apart. 
  5. Cook on each side until golden brown [about 6 minutes each side]. After flipping to cook the other side, I suggest melting the cheese on top of the ramen buns for extra flavor.
  6. Once the ramen buns are done in the skillet carefully transport them to a cutting board, and use an appropriately sized coffee mug or cup to cut a perfect circle out of the middle of each ramen bun, this way the excess noodles won't be dangling off the edges. 
  7. Assemble the burger however you would like and enjoy!! :)
