Ingredients
  

For the Noodles
  • 4 servings Ramen Noodles Can use whole grain noodles for a healthier option.
For the Sauce
  • 2 large Eggs Essential for a creamy texture.
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese Nutritional yeast can be used for a vegan option.
For the Savory Element
  • 4 oz Bacon Can substitute with mushrooms or tofu for vegetarians.
  • 1 tbsp Gochujang Adjust amount based on spice tolerance.

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions until they are al dente. Drain and set aside, keeping them warm.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and grated parmesan cheese until fully combined.
  3. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy—about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and chop into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Return the skillet with residual bacon fat to low heat, add the cooked ramen, and pour in the egg mixture. Stir quickly to ensure a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
  5. Stir in the chopped bacon and gochujang for extra flavor. Mix until everything is well combined.
  6. Plate the ramen carbonara immediately, garnishing with fresh herbs.
