Instant ramen is all-too-familiar for many university students. However, instant ramen noodles can get boring, so I decided to challenge myself and spice it up. I was inspired by asian stir fried noodles that are quite common in many Chinese food restaurants. So, I decided to replicate one using ramen noodles instead of rice noodles.
