Recipe: Beef and Snap Peas Ramen
Description: This &quot;ramen hack&quot; uses fresh ingredients to liven up packaged ramen. Adapted from a recipe at Serious Eats. http://bit.ly/fPBZyf
Ingredients: [{"text": "1 (3 -4 ounce) package beef-flavored ramen noodles"}, {"text": "1/4 lb flank steak, thinly sliced"}, {"text": "2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided"}, {"text": "1/4 lb snap peas"}, {"text": "2 tablespoons oyster sauce"}, {"text": "1 teaspoon sugar"}, {"text": "2 scallions, sliced (green part only)"}]
Instructions: Add half the ramen seasoning packet to the sliced steak and toss well.
Cook the ramen in boiling water just until soft and the block of noodles breaks apart; do not cook to doneness. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil until smoking. Add beef in one layer and allow to cook, entirely undisturbed until well-browned, about 1 minute. Toss the meat, add snap peas and cook 1 minute more.
Add the remaining oil, the noodles, the rest of the seasoning packet, the oyster sauce and sugar. Toss well and cook 1-2 minutes.
Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with scallions to serve.
