At home and in the mood for some Asian comfort food – I thought “Hey! I have a pack of ramen – let’s DO THIS!”
What is “this” exactly? Yaki Ramen!!
No filter!! Angela can WOK - so can YOU!
What You’ll Need:
-one pack a ramen per person
-water
-veggies – I like, mushrooms and cucumber – Other ideas include: beansprouts, shredded carrots, and peas
-meats/seafood – Almost cooked chicken, beef, pork, duck, I like shrimp and scallops (Hint: Defrosted frozen cooked shrimp are the easiest to use!)
-Sesame oil
-a wok or pot
**Optional – hot sauce, coriander
Easy Instructions:
1. Put your wok/pot on the stove. Turn the element to high heat.
2. Open your ramen noodle packs and place them in the wok/pot. Fill the wok/pot so that the noodles are half submerged in water. At this time, add in your veggies, meats, and the seasoning pack from the instant noodle pack. STIR!!
3. Keep your element on high heat and continue stirring until all the water is gone.
4. Garnish with hot sauce and coriander if you like – SERVE!

Poutine has everything to do with Canadian culture and especially the Quebecois culture and since JE T’AIME QUEBEC! I was invited to celebrate last Friday’s St Jean Baptiste day at my Besties house in true french food fashion with a poutine party!
My Bestie asked me to help prep for this gluttonous event and of course, I obliged BUT there was NO WAY I was going to spend hours peeling potatoes. That’s just not in me. I mean I once cut myself super deep with a knife just by cleaning it – I almost passed out – I saw flesh! Millions (huge overstatement) of potatoes and 1 potato peeler? That’s just asking for a lost finger. And I like all my fingers so this post is an instructional how-to throw your very own poutine party!
