How to Make Delicious Clam Ramen at Home
Feeling too lazy to cook a full meal? This clam ramen recipe is your perfect solution! It’s arguably the simplest way to enjoy the amazing flavor of clams in a noodle dish. The clams add a refreshing depth to the ramen, elevating it beyond its usual taste, making it a truly special treat. Feel free to adjust the amount of ramen and clams to your liking – we used about 7 clams and a spicy ramen for an extra kick. It’s perfect for a quick meal or even as a late-night snack!
Main Ingredients- 1 packet of ramen (choose your favorite type)
- Fresh clams (to your preference, about 7-10 is a good starting point)
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 handful of green onions, chopped
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start by preparing your fresh clams. Rinse them thoroughly under running water. Make sure to scrub away any sand or grit trapped between the shells, as this is crucial for achieving a clean and refreshing broth flavor.
Step 2
Heat a little cooking oil in a wok or a deep pan. Add the cleaned clams. Sautéing the clams over high heat initially helps to bring out their natural sweetness and prepare them to open.
Step 3
Now, let’s add more aromatics! Toss in 1 tablespoon of minced garlic and a generous handful of chopped green onions over the clams. The fragrant aroma of garlic and onion will beautifully complement the clams and deepen the ramen broth’s flavor.
Step 4
Stir-fry for a moment until the green onions become fragrant. Then, add the ramen soup base and dried vegetable flakes from your ramen packet. The oil released from the onions and garlic, combined with the clam juices, will create a delicious foundation for your broth.
Step 5
Continue to stir gently to prevent anything from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Pour in 600ml of water and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling and the clams have opened wide, add your ramen noodles. Cook until the noodles are done to your desired tenderness.
Step 6
Finally, once the ramen is perfectly cooked, add a dash of freshly ground black pepper, if desired. The subtle spice of the pepper will enhance the overall flavor profile of your delicious clam ramen. Enjoy your comforting meal!
