Ha! Funny you should ask. This is one of my most commonly done and favorite things to eat.
Cookie sheet with nonstick inside & outSome years ago I developed a recipe for cookies that knocked my socks off and part of the process of making these cookies to perfection was developing the perfect cooking scenario. I...
First, I simply chuck the the flavoring packets, as they have some whey in them, and my kid is allergic to dairy. I have some "Beef Base" and "Chicken Base" that comes in these tubs from Costco that I use for flavoring.
Take like 4-6 oz frozen steak. Let thaw a little for easier slicing, and slice thinly. Marinate in a little soy sauce and some of that red Chili Garlic Sauce until the meat is thawed completely. (Yes, this is in the danger zone, I'm sure). Set aside.
Slice Carrots, Celery, Green Onions, Mushrooms. Also, very thinly, slice some Onions and Green Cabbage. Set aside.
Put 6 cups of water in a pot. Add 2 Tbls of Beef Base (or chicken base, if you desire), or whatever ratio is needed to make "broth". Add the carrots. Bring to boil over high heat.
Add Ramen Noodles and cook for time on package (usually 3 minutes). Halfway through cooking, add celery, cabbage, and onions. After noodles are tender, add mushrooms.
Then remove from heat, add green onions, and dump the sliced steak (with the marinade) in. Stir. The already hot water cooks the thinly sliced steak.
I usually add a little more soy sauce and the red chili garlic paste stuff to my bowl to make it spicier. It is a total sodium fest, but really good, I think.
And for whatever reason (too much information?) I inevitably have to hit the bathroom about half an hour after eating. Maybe it's the beef base. I dunno.
Have fun!
