Garlic Butter Tossed Noodles
Scrambled Egg

A quick and comforting bowl of noodles tossed in rich garlic butter, savory soy sauce, and a creamy scrambled egg, finished with sesame and seaweed.

Ingredients

• 1 serving noodles
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 spoonful light soy sauce
• 1 pinch sugar
• 1 small ladle noodle soup
• 1 egg
• to taste shredded seaweed
• to taste toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

1. 1Melt the Butter

   

   Place a piece of butter into a pan on the stove and let it melt completely over heat.

   Tip: Keep the heat medium-low to prevent the butter from burning.
2. 2Add Minced Garlic

   

   Pour minced garlic directly into the melted butter in the pan and stir-fry to release its rich aroma.

   Tip: Stir continuously so the garlic browns evenly without turning bitter.
3. 3Sauté the minced garlic

   

   Continue stirring the garlic over low heat until it turns a light golden brown and smells intensely fragrant.

   Tip: Keep the heat low to medium so the garlic doesnt burn and turn bitter.
4. 4Add light soy sauce

   

   Pour one spoonful of light soy sauce directly into the sautéed garlic and butter mixture to build the base flavor profile.

   Tip: Pour the soy sauce around the edges of the pan to let it sizzle and enhance the aroma.
5. 5Add a pinch of sugar

   

   Add a small pinch of sugar into the pan to balance the saltiness of the soy sauce and add a touch of sweetness.

   Tip: Just a small pinch is enough to balance the flavors without making the dish sweet.
6. 6Mix the sauce ingredients

   

   Use a green silicone spatula to stir and combine the butter, garlic, light soy sauce, and sugar evenly over low heat.

   Tip: Stir well until the sugar is fully dissolved into the liquid sauce.
7. 7Pour Noodle Soup

   

   Add a small ladle of noodle soup into the seasoned pan to create the base liquid for the sauce.

   Tip: Using warm noodle soup helps blend the flavors smoothly.
8. 8Add Cooked Noodles

   

   Transfer the pre-cooked noodles from their container directly into the pan with the sauce.

   Tip: Shake off excess water from the noodles before adding them to keep the sauce rich.
9. 9Mix Noodles with Sauce

   

   Use chopsticks to toss and stir the noodles thoroughly so they absorb the flavorful sauce evenly.

   Tip: Lift and fold the noodles gently to avoid breaking them.
10. 10Crack an Egg

    

    Crack a fresh egg directly into the center of the noodles in the pan.

    Tip: Lower the heat before adding the egg to ensure a smooth, creamy texture when scrambling.
11. 11Scramble the Egg with Noodles

    

    Quickly stir the egg on low heat to scramble it, ensuring it cooks gently and coats every single strand of noodle for a rich, creamy finish.

    Tip: Keep the heat low so the egg cooks smoothly without curdling too fast or burning.
12. 12Garnish with Seaweed and Sesame Seeds

    

    Finish the dish by generously sprinkling a handful of shredded seaweed and toasted sesame seeds right over the top of the noodles to add a fragrant aroma and visual appeal.

    Tip: Toasted sesame seeds provide the best nutty flavor boost.
