Ingredients: 1 large egg; 1 tsp minced garlic; 1 packet instant ramen noodles (e.g., Shin); 1 instant ramen dried vegetable packet; 1 instant ramen seasoning packet; 1 tbsp Japanese mayonnaise; 1 tsp soy sauce; 1 tsp chili crisp; 2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled; 1/4 cup enoki mushrooms; 4 fish roe dumplings; 2 cups water

1

In a serving bowl, combine the egg, minced garlic, the dried vegetable and seasoning packets from the instant ramen, Japanese mayonnaise, soy sauce, chili crisp, and cooked bacon.

2

Whisk the sauce ingredients together until fully combined.

3

In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the ramen noodle block.

4

If using, add the enoki mushrooms and fish roe dumplings to the pot with the noodles. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.

5

While continuously whisking the sauce, slowly pour a few spoonfuls of the hot noodle water into the bowl to temper the egg and create a creamy sauce.

Using tongs, transfer the cooked noodles and enoki mushrooms from the pot into the bowl with the sauce.

Toss everything together until the noodles are well-coated in the sauce.
