Recipe Introduction
recipe by Pierre Dance
I found this one on the web but I don't remember where. This is no place for watery lager. It calls for a beer or ale with a full robust flavor. I usually use a Brown or Red Ale from ICE HARBOR BREWERY, my favorite local Micro brewery. Fat Tire Ale from The New Belgium Brewery is another good choice. Most Ramen recipes are particularly handy for RV cooking, ie, minimum use of gas, not much heat buildup in the kitchen, and the pantry doesn't weigh much.
2 servings
List of Ingredients
1 package ramen noodles, broken fairly small (Throw away the 'flavor pack', 92-97% SODIUM, your getting more than enough Sodium without this!)
3 tablespoons oil
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed French onion soup (Cream of Mushroom works well too.)
1 3/4 cups beer or ale (1 soup can full, I'll leave it to you to find a use for the rest of the bottle of beer!)
Recipe
Heat Oil in a medium sauce pan over medium heat.
Add broken Noodles.
Stir fry'til golden brown.
Add Soup and Beer.
Cover, bring to a slow boil.
Reduce heat, simmer 6 minutes.
Uncover, simmer to thicken 4 minutes longer.
Serve, with a baguette for sauce control.
A raw vegetable platter drizzled with Key Lime Juice and a cold Ale is a natural with this.
ADDENDUM: The last time I did this one I had some leftover grilled Andoulle sausages which I had frozen. I nuked 2 of them to thaw them and add them to the soup. Both of us were suitably impressed.
