Ingredients
  

  • 2.64 oz. Shin ramen
  • 5.25 oz. cream of mushroom soup usually half of a 10.5 oz can.
  • 2 cups water

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Frying pan
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Start by gathering your ingredients. You'll need your water, cream of mushroom soup, and Shin ramen to kick things off. Having everything ready makes the process smooth and enjoyable.
  2. In a medium saucepan, pour in 2 cups of water. This is going to be the base of your soup.
  3. Add the cream of mushroom soup to the water. Stir it gently until everything is blended together. You’re looking for a creamy consistency that will envelop the noodles beautifully.
  4. Next, open the ramen package and include the spice packet. Stir it into the mixture, allowing the flavors to meld. You’ll start to notice a delightful aroma wafting through your kitchen.
  5. Place the saucepan over medium heat. Keep an eye on the mixture and stir occasionally. You want to heat it until it begins to boil, which should take a few minutes.
  6. Once boiling, it's time to add the uncooked Shin ramen noodles. Gently place them into the bubbling soup and make sure they're submerged.
  7. Cook the noodles for about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. You'll know they're done when they’re tender but not overcooked.
  8. Remove the saucepan from heat. This is the moment you've been waiting for! Your Shaq Ramen is ready to be served.
  9. Finally, ladle the soup into bowls. You can garnish with green onions or your favorite toppings if you like. Enjoy your delicious meal!

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep for up to three days.
  • Freezing: While it’s best fresh, you can freeze the ramen soup base. Just be sure to leave out the noodles until you're ready to eat.
  • Pairing: Serve with a side of garlic bread or a simple salad for a complete meal.
  • Variations: Experiment with adding cooked chicken or tofu for protein, or toss in some fresh veggies like spinach or bok choy.
  • Spice it up: If you enjoy heat, consider adding some chili oil or fresh chili slices for an extra kick.
