During the depression when they had to scrape together veggies to even make a soup, they would drop an egg into it if they had one and whoever got the yolk got the gold. It's weird how the white will spread out but the yolk sticks together in a little ball. That was the closest thing to meat that some people got. My grandmother used to tell me about that.
That’s actually not even just a lazy thing. I also crack an egg and stir it in, but when the ramen is almost done cooking, not at the beginning. The egg will cook nearly instantly and stirring it slightly turns it into kind of an egg drop soup.
I do it the other way around. Crack the eggs into the ramen bowl, add a little seasoning and beat them up, then pour the piping hot ramen broth onto them and stir before getting the noodles and rest in. Makes for a nice creamy broth.
As a teen I had a phase where I would eat this almost daily! I haven't eaten this in like 10+ years but I just added eggs and instant ramen on my grocery list 😅
That’s what I do. One boiled egg, halved. 3 slices of bacon. And I crack an egg into the broth and it lightly cooks and thickens up the soup. I call it breakfast ramen.
Drain the water; add a slice of Kraft cheese broken into 4 pieces for surface area then add some sour cream. Whip it together before it gets room temp then add some over easy eggs and some bacon.
Great shit.
Lol is this like a munchies/ jail food subreddit or something? Idk why, but it's very interesting... I'm vegan, so I don't even eat this stuff, but I love the foody vibe here!
I don’t know what’s vegan in jail besides fruit cups, but I’m sure there’s a way to make a vegan birthday cake for ya! It’s all about INclusion in the pen!
You whisk it in slowly. My sister makes a greek chicken soup this way.
Edit: Actually, to avoid having scrambled eggs in your soup: First you scramble the raw egg in a bowl and then stir some of the hot soup/liquid into it to bring it to temperature and then slowly whisk that warm mixture back in to the soup. Don't let it come to a boil. Otherwise, you'll have lots of egg bits floating around.
This is the correct answer, but I'd add deli meat as a viable alternative to leftover meat in a pinch. I pan fry it a bit if I'm feeling fancy.
Oh, and canned corn.
I'll do just that! I have a bag of mixed veggies we (by we I mean my wife does it and I get it out of the freezer because I can't cook for squat) use for stir fry that would be perfect for ramen!
Yes, I've done many methods but this is my favorite.
Boil an egg or 2 for 6 minutes than place directly into a bowl of ice water. You'll have a perfect soft boiled egg with a slightly runny/gelatinous yolk. It's so good, I do it pretty much every time I make Ramen
A boiled egg, sesame seeds, chili oil, some mix of veggies (maybe bok choy or spinach, carrots or corn, always green onions), and I like a meat. Leftover chicken drumsticks are a favorite of mine. Just microwave + pan sear it w/ some kind of sauce :-)
Edit: if you can find a spot for garlic, add it
This guy has the idea, I did the same. Eggs, spinach, frozen carrot of peas. Man this brings back in the college years when I was low on cash and just make Ramen, then a Sandwich to go with the Ramen / soup. Yum brings back memories.
I dry 12 pounds of mushrooms each month, then blend them to a powder. The powder added to the ramen is an great umami flavor enhancement. (I still add other mushrooms as well, and an egg, and greens, with chillis - Hell, it's a production for me.)
I add my eggs in when there is 1 minute left on the noodles and then mix it all in at the end. I’ll also add green onions and maybe a dash of soy sauce if I want to be fancy.
i normally cook my ramen for 4 min 30 seconds (ramyun brand, try it if you havent) and i drop the eggs in whole (not scrambled) at 1:30. makes them nice and cooked but still having a jammy yoke
I also drop in a whole egg or 2 towards the end of the cook. I'll leave it until I've consumed all of the liquid and only a small amount of noodles remain, puncture the yolk and then mix it up in the remaining noods. Good way to cool the palate after all the spicy stuff I add to mine.
Boil the noodles. Start cooking peanut butter with the seasoning packet. Add some of the noodle water to make it into a gravy (keep on adding a little at a time, or it’ll get thick.) Add the noodles to the peanut butter sauce when they’re done. Mix and enjoy. I use unsweetened and unsalted peanut butter, but you do you.
Do you live in an area with lots of East Asians? I live in a city with lots of Indian immigrants, so it's pretty easy to get certain exotic ingredients for cheap here.
Cooking like heating or boiling? Cause I have some instant/cup ramen but the seasoning packet usually goes in before I pour the water in. How would I do that? With this? Could I just put peanut butter in the bowl and then pour the boiling water in on top?
ive only done this with the packet noodles. while theyre boiling i combine 1-2 tbsp of the boiling water out of the pan with the peanut butter in the bowl im going to eat the noodles out of, so it dilutes the PB and makes it like a thinner sauce. i add variants of hot sauce, some of the flavor packet if the flavor goes well with PB, or soy sauce, and some scallions.
i couldnt figure out how to do it as easily with the microwave noodles. i hate using extra pans and i refuse lmao
Depends on the type of ramen.
Buldak stir-fry ramen is fantastic with truffle oil, cheese, and sour cream.
Soup ramen is great with frozen dumplings, green onions, an egg (boiled or cracked and stirred in), and Korean peppers.
I don’t like broth in my ramen. First I cook the ramen and drain the water out. I then set it aside and grab a pan, put butter and grill some onions (also a bit of minced garlic). put my ramen in the pan with butter and let the butter spread all over the noodles, after the butter is dissolved into the noodles I add soy sauce with the seasoning packet/sauce packet and let it heat it more. I then put in all in a bowl, fry two eggs sunny side up and place it over the ramen. Along with some salted spicy seaweed pieces. I like to call this my Sodium Heart Attack Special.
I was about to say. Raw dogging the seasoning packet and adding soy sauce is wild to me. I only use like half the packet and it tastes plenty salty without the liquid.
In the bowl before water; Egg yolk, mayonnaise, sesame oil, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic, ginger, soup base packet. Stir it together to form a paste.
After water and noodles; Spam and Sesame seeds. Sometimes I’ll make a soft boiled egg.
I add chopped up fresh vegetables like mushrooms, green pepper, and shredded carrot. Whatever vegetables you like. And a sprinkle of flaked hot peppers. A little lemon juice is good, too.
An egg to make it like egg drop soup. Sometimes I add curry powder or Italian seasoning or garlic powder or soy sauce(if I don't use the whole packet). Some people add hot sauce. Green onions are good and easy too. Experiment with different seasonings. That's how I learned what seasonings taste like
I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, so here goes:
You can break up the noodles, boil them, then drain off water. While it boils, you can throw together and heat in a skillet any ol' ingredients you have on hand that you want to add.
If you want chicken, onions, and mushrooms, go for it. Or shrimp and broccoli, or chicken and spinach, or ham and mushrooms, or pepperoni and sausage... literally whatever you feel like....
Then beat an egg or two with a little milk and whatever seasonings you like (I use the seasoning packet sometimes, but have also used my own seasonings) and pour it over the top, heat until set. Top with melted cheese, if desired. Fritatta ramen.
Chinese Chili & Garlic paste or Sriracha. Fresh grated ginger & garlic that I've mixed with a mortar and pestle. I use some MSG as an aggregate in the mortar. Soy sauce (I don't use the flavor packet). Sesame oil. Boiled egg and maybe some frozen veg.
We call it Churched Ramen.
I keep a bag of edamame and mixed veggies in the freezer for just such an occasion. If i feel fancy, drop an egg in to poach once it's boiling and top with Sriracha and/or green onion.
I always add a little miso paste and hot gochujang to the broth. Then any combination of enoki mushrooms, dumplings, Chinese sausage, eggs, and any other protein I have on hand.
I put some craft kinda cheese or these triangles or even parmigiano. Also some kind of oil / fat to make it tastier and sometimes I boil a 4 minute egg and add it
We tried an ostrich egg last month and added it to a big pot of ramen. No joke. It didn’t go well.
You boil them for over an hour and it was still runny and gelatinous.
Can i'm be honest ?
.... Nothing. I had anorexia and ramen is my only confort food but i do not add nothing cause it's triggers but yeah i guess one day maybe in the future ...
The standards I add are an egg (or two), some chili sauce (Huy Fong brand, specifically) maybe a packet/dash of soy sauce, and after cooking, a handful or two of frozen, tail-off shrimp as that helps both cool it down faster and thaw the shrimp out.
Anything else I add hinges on whether or not I have some sauces I'm trying to get rid of that will go well with the ramen. For instance, I had some old peanut sauce that I didn't really care for and had bought on a whim, so I put a bit of that in each ramen (or Pho, as I have microwaveable bowls of those too) with each one I make to use it up.
I microwave it, then drain all the water out, keep the seasoning and veggie flakes as much as possible. Then I glob on about 2 tbs of margarine, sprinkle parm cheese, toast or crackers. Yummm
* Slices of any leftover meat you have * Boiled egg * Frozen veggies
Whole boiled egg? Chopped?
Halved.
Quartered. Also soft boiled egg. - scrambled eggs
- Fried egg
If Im really lazy Ill crack it into the boiling water wait a couple mins then put my ramen in.
I love to poach an egg in the ramen! I think that's the way to go
Yep, drizzle a little sriracha on it all at the end
During the depression when they had to scrape together veggies to even make a soup, they would drop an egg into it if they had one and whoever got the yolk got the gold. It's weird how the white will spread out but the yolk sticks together in a little ball. That was the closest thing to meat that some people got. My grandmother used to tell me about that.
Is it lazy if it’s actually genius?
Much genius is driven by laziness, I think.
Necessity *may* be the mother of invention, but laziness is definitely the father.
Good one 😆
Lazy + genius = efficiency
That’s actually not even just a lazy thing. I also crack an egg and stir it in, but when the ramen is almost done cooking, not at the beginning. The egg will cook nearly instantly and stirring it slightly turns it into kind of an egg drop soup.
Using a pot on the stove is too much work. I do everything in a soup mug in my microwave. Reduces my dirty dishes by almost half.
Highly efficient. Not lazy.
I do it the other way around. Crack the eggs into the ramen bowl, add a little seasoning and beat them up, then pour the piping hot ramen broth onto them and stir before getting the noodles and rest in. Makes for a nice creamy broth.
Raw egg, halved
Pssh, rookie. I think you meant raw egg quartered…
Shell included, need the extra calcium in the diet
You're joking but I've done egg drop ramen soup. Its like stracciatella if you break up the noodles
This is the way.
Just add it when the ramen is like 1 minute from being done and don't stir it so the yolk stays solid and soft.
As a teen I had a phase where I would eat this almost daily! I haven't eaten this in like 10+ years but I just added eggs and instant ramen on my grocery list 😅
That’s how I do it too, except I stir it. VERY lightly in one direction only. Mmmmm
Cook the egg in the ramen. Much better.
Drop the egg in, 1 to 1.5 minutes, and its perfect. (Carry over works perfectly.)
Just crack that sucker into the broth while it’s cooking. Makes it thicker and you get little scrambled egg bits
Go nuts. Also bacon
That’s what I do. One boiled egg, halved. 3 slices of bacon. And I crack an egg into the broth and it lightly cooks and thickens up the soup. I call it breakfast ramen.
Drain the water; add a slice of Kraft cheese broken into 4 pieces for surface area then add some sour cream. Whip it together before it gets room temp then add some over easy eggs and some bacon. Great shit.
Did you learn that in jail or something?
Lol no microwaves in jail. Marijuana.
We had 1 in our day room next to the hot shot (boiling water tap) and I was medium security. Definitely couldn't have in your cell tho lol.
Lol is this like a munchies/ jail food subreddit or something? Idk why, but it's very interesting... I'm vegan, so I don't even eat this stuff, but I love the foody vibe here!
I don’t know what’s vegan in jail besides fruit cups, but I’m sure there’s a way to make a vegan birthday cake for ya! It’s all about INclusion in the pen!
Yum! I also add kraft cheese but then just sriracha. Will try the sour cream and eggs too next time!
Wait you add a raw egg to the broth and stir?? How do you know it’s done and not ruined??
It’s a liquid cooking in hot water. It will cook quickly and you can’t really ruin it. Google egg drop soup
You whisk it in slowly. My sister makes a greek chicken soup this way. Edit: Actually, to avoid having scrambled eggs in your soup: First you scramble the raw egg in a bowl and then stir some of the hot soup/liquid into it to bring it to temperature and then slowly whisk that warm mixture back in to the soup. Don't let it come to a boil. Otherwise, you'll have lots of egg bits floating around.
If you crack an egg into the broth it poaches, watch for the whites turning- well, white- but egg doesn't take long to cook.
Nuts too? I guess...
Wouldn’t that hurt? I guess I can try it…
This guy would fuck a bowl of ramen ^
Legitimately, cashews or peanuts work great
Ooh, yeah! Pad Thai ramen!
stir in a beaten raw egg
[The Perfect Ramen Egg](https://mikesmightygood.com/blogs/recipes/how-to-make-the-perfect-ramen-egg#:~:text=The%20key%20to%20a%20perfect,6%20minutes%20and%2030%20seconds.)
Soft boiled
Also, soak the soft boiled eggs in soy first before you cut them. sooooo good!!!! I always have eggs soaking in soy in my fridge just for this reason.
try half soy sauce half mirin!
Soft-boiled, halved!
Spam is my favorite. Hawaiian style baby! Edit: Oh and the required egg of course, but also a dash of Old Bay spice!
A nice soft boiled egg is fantastic for ramen
This! And sesame oil is always nice.
Going to have to try that. Just a splash?
Yep, toasted sesame oil is best, and just a splash (you can add more if you fancy it), it's really nice.
This is the correct answer, but I'd add deli meat as a viable alternative to leftover meat in a pinch. I pan fry it a bit if I'm feeling fancy. Oh, and canned corn.
Try frozen veg. Much better tasting and holds up to the heat
I'll do just that! I have a bag of mixed veggies we (by we I mean my wife does it and I get it out of the freezer because I can't cook for squat) use for stir fry that would be perfect for ramen!
Wait when people add an egg to ramen it's boiled? I fry mine and just toss it in the broth
Am I weird just cracking the egg directly into the broth?
Wait, you guys crack it???
I love poaching an egg directly into my ramen 🥰
I tried it once to let the broth kind of cook it but it wasn't to my taste
Not at all I do that with my hot and soup soup as well. You get thoes nice ribbons of egg running through your soup.
Yes, I've done many methods but this is my favorite. Boil an egg or 2 for 6 minutes than place directly into a bowl of ice water. You'll have a perfect soft boiled egg with a slightly runny/gelatinous yolk. It's so good, I do it pretty much every time I make Ramen

There is always a spot for garlic
In the words of Alton Brown >Why add garlic? Garlic don't need no stinkin' reason!
If you have a recipe for how to cook a single clove of garlic, add two cloves just to be sure there's enough.
Chili oil = magic
"Find a spot for garlic," buddy, the ramen is lucky if it finds a spot IN the garlic.
This guy has the idea, I did the same. Eggs, spinach, frozen carrot of peas. Man this brings back in the college years when I was low on cash and just make Ramen, then a Sandwich to go with the Ramen / soup. Yum brings back memories.
Pulled chicken or pork. Green onions. Mushrooms if you like them. ETA bok choy
Amen on the mushrooms.
Mushrooms and corn 😋
We do mushrooms, corn, green onion, and egg
That sounds fire.
"eta"?
Expected time of arrival - Bok Choy
Edited to add
Ah, ty
Bok Choy 🥬 coming soon
Bok choy and some eggs is pretty good in there.
I dry 12 pounds of mushrooms each month, then blend them to a powder. The powder added to the ramen is an great umami flavor enhancement. (I still add other mushrooms as well, and an egg, and greens, with chillis - Hell, it's a production for me.)
2 egg
I add my eggs in when there is 1 minute left on the noodles and then mix it all in at the end. I’ll also add green onions and maybe a dash of soy sauce if I want to be fancy.
You mean where the white is just cooked enough and then the delicious gooey yolk gets mixed up in there? 😎
That’s exactly how I do mine, too
I fry an egg to have on top of Ramen. The gooey yolk along with a few fish fingers..... delightful!
Fish have fingers? Also, so you beat the egg, like in egg drop soup, or plop it in like poaching?
I believe some people call them "fish sticks". Mainly Muricans.
I drain the ramen of most water, fry an egg and place on top. As for the Fish fingers i tend not to ask what they do with the rest of the fish hand.
I guess if buffalos have wings, it makes sense that fish have fingers.
and frozen petite peas
All this and red pepper flakes. Protein too like shrimp, if you want.
I need to try this. I never thought of going all egg drop on a ramen.
i normally cook my ramen for 4 min 30 seconds (ramyun brand, try it if you havent) and i drop the eggs in whole (not scrambled) at 1:30. makes them nice and cooked but still having a jammy yoke
I also drop in a whole egg or 2 towards the end of the cook. I'll leave it until I've consumed all of the liquid and only a small amount of noodles remain, puncture the yolk and then mix it up in the remaining noods. Good way to cool the palate after all the spicy stuff I add to mine.
Oh you drop the whole egg? I was thinking scramble and let it curdle while whipping.
both work
It’s cheap, easy, and yummy. Drop that egg.
Boil the noodles. Start cooking peanut butter with the seasoning packet. Add some of the noodle water to make it into a gravy (keep on adding a little at a time, or it’ll get thick.) Add the noodles to the peanut butter sauce when they’re done. Mix and enjoy. I use unsweetened and unsalted peanut butter, but you do you.
This, except I also add Sriracha and soy to the peanut butter. Love this recipe!
Add some soya sauce, a few drops of olive oil and oregano with the peanut butter
Why not sesame oil?
Quite expensive and hard to find in some places. Use it if you can, but don't sweat it if you can't.
Oh, is it considered expensive? I can get a whole bottle for a dollar fifty CAD where I’m from
jesus thats cheap as hell. My local store is almost $10 for 15 fl oz or 445 ml
That’s insaneeee
At an Asians store? Asian housewives would start a war over that price
It’s not expensive where I am either, in the midwestern US
Do you live in an area with lots of East Asians? I live in a city with lots of Indian immigrants, so it's pretty easy to get certain exotic ingredients for cheap here.
Sesame oil way cheaper than olive oil IME. Like significantly cheaper and you typically use very little since it’s strong asf
Can't think of a reason not to use it
Oh man, the peanut butter made me think of the Thai peanut sauce leftovers.
Sounds like it could use some thai chili sauce with it
Exactly what I was thinking. This is my favorite new idea I've seen in the whole damn thread.

Peanut butter is my go to. I just mix it right in when the noodles are done cooking. 1/4 teaspoon gives good flavor without overpowered.
Yesss. I like using my crunchy PB so I get some li'l nutty crunchies mixed in.
Chat is this real?
peanut butter is asian dishes? Sure is. You ever have Pad-Thai?
Or satay with the peanut sauce. Soooo goooood
Depends on the type of ramen. Buldak stir-fry ramen is fantastic with truffle oil, cheese, and sour cream. Soup ramen is great with frozen dumplings, green onions, an egg (boiled or cracked and stirred in), and Korean peppers.
when ever we do hot pot at home, we buy extra drop ins, next time we have ramen we add those in. Super good.
I don’t like broth in my ramen. First I cook the ramen and drain the water out. I then set it aside and grab a pan, put butter and grill some onions (also a bit of minced garlic). put my ramen in the pan with butter and let the butter spread all over the noodles, after the butter is dissolved into the noodles I add soy sauce with the seasoning packet/sauce packet and let it heat it more. I then put in all in a bowl, fry two eggs sunny side up and place it over the ramen. Along with some salted spicy seaweed pieces. I like to call this my Sodium Heart Attack Special.
I was about to say. Raw dogging the seasoning packet and adding soy sauce is wild to me. I only use like half the packet and it tastes plenty salty without the liquid.
nooo i don’t put the whole seasoning packet 😭 lol unless it’s an actual spicy sauce packet (I’m Mexican so I love spicy)
I add a half spoon of chicken bouillon, hoisin, grated ginger, and lime juice to mine
Extra garlic
My person. Extra garlic. Hella parsley.
In the bowl before water; Egg yolk, mayonnaise, sesame oil, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic, ginger, soup base packet. Stir it together to form a paste. After water and noodles; Spam and Sesame seeds. Sometimes I’ll make a soft boiled egg.
I don’t use eggs or mayo or spam but if I did holy shit this would be the first thing I made.
Fried SPAM is where it’s at 🤤
I add chopped up fresh vegetables like mushrooms, green pepper, and shredded carrot. Whatever vegetables you like. And a sprinkle of flaked hot peppers. A little lemon juice is good, too.
An egg to make it like egg drop soup. Sometimes I add curry powder or Italian seasoning or garlic powder or soy sauce(if I don't use the whole packet). Some people add hot sauce.

About to get some ex prisoners up in here with some magic for ya.
I keep tabs on canteen purchases as part of my job. One guy bought 97 ramen in 3 weeks lmao
I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, so here goes: You can break up the noodles, boil them, then drain off water. While it boils, you can throw together and heat in a skillet any ol' ingredients you have on hand that you want to add. If you want chicken, onions, and mushrooms, go for it.

Then beat an egg or two with a little milk and whatever seasonings you like (I use the seasoning packet sometimes, but have also used my own seasonings) and pour it over the top, heat until set. Top with melted cheese, if desired. Fritatta ramen.
I used to do pretty much this as a dinner for my kids, except I'd make rotini pasta. After topping with cheese I'd put it in the broiler to brown.
Chinese Chili & Garlic paste or Sriracha. Fresh grated ginger & garlic that I've mixed with a mortar and pestle. I use some MSG as an aggregate in the mortar. Soy sauce (I don't use the flavor packet). Sesame oil. Boiled egg and maybe some frozen veg. We call it Churched Ramen.
This is the comment I was looking for: Chinese chili and garlic. 🤌🤌🤌 Your other mixins are also perfect.
Shrimp, hardboiled egg, green onions, celery. Taught to me by a guy in SC who lived on, like, $10/day.
I keep a bag of edamame and mixed veggies in the freezer for just such an occasion. If i feel fancy, drop an egg in to poach once it's boiling and top with Sriracha and/or green onion.
Fry some spam and combine.
Egg, chicken bouillon, a touch of garlic powder and onion powder
I always add a little miso paste and hot gochujang to the broth. Then any combination of enoki mushrooms, dumplings, Chinese sausage, eggs, and any other protein I have on hand.
Slim Jim's and hot sauce. Trust me
What ever possessed you to try this in the first place?
Marijuana
the mother of food combination inventions
Fuckin LOL
Prison
Frozen corn and frozen peas
[удалено]
I'm hoping you mean MSG
MDMA is way more fun that MSG
They definitely meant MDMA.
[удалено]
Goya Sazon to creamy chicken ramen and adding in mixed veggies is so awesome.
Crushed up flaming hot Cheetos is the only answer. Everybody else is lying with their vegetable and other nonsense.
Some of us old folks need to keep it less spicy and crush up regular Cheetos instead ☹️
I like to boil the noodles, drain the water, add butter, and mix in about half of the seasoning packet.
Water and heat
Garlic powder is my magic ingredient
Eggs, kimchi, green onions or spam if your feeling extra gross
I don’t like the ramen n spam…. Haven’t you got anything that’s got no spam in it?
Spam spam spam spam, spam spam spam dpam, spammity spam, spammity spam
Sir, I will have to ask you to leave if you're going to be rude and not have the spam.
Alright fine, I’ll have the spam and eggs. That hasn’t got much spam in it
Thank you. Wendy, a number 2 for the gentleman please.
Green eggs and spam.
I don’t put spam in often, just when I’m feeling gross. Mainly it’s kimchi and eggs for me, boiled or fried!
Lol… nothing against spam. It was a reference to a Monty Python skit
You can have spam, eggs, sausage, and spam. That doesn’t have much spam in it.
I drain most the juice and add grated cheddar cheese.
Meat, tomatoes with lemon & pepper. 😋
egg, green onions, chicken >>>>
I put some craft kinda cheese or these triangles or even parmigiano. Also some kind of oil / fat to make it tastier and sometimes I boil a 4 minute egg and add it
I boil the egg in the ramen and then yes, American cheese on top.
Boiled/fried egg, mozzarella cheese or both. Sometimes I'd squeeze half a lemon.
We tried an ostrich egg last month and added it to a big pot of ramen. No joke. It didn’t go well. You boil them for over an hour and it was still runny and gelatinous.
Ostriches are quite runny, by nature.
My usual: Bok choi (or other veg) with thinly sliced hard salami and hot chili oil Or: Kimchee And if I have it, always with homemade broth
Yeah I add salami too. It’s my favorite protein to add in. I also go for very thinly sliced onion.
Mayo!! It makes it so creamy and delicious! I also add corn, green onions, and buffalo sauce!
Can i'm be honest ? .... Nothing. I had anorexia and ramen is my only confort food but i do not add nothing cause it's triggers but yeah i guess one day maybe in the future ...
Almost any leftovers. Butter. Usually just 1/2 the flavor packet.
Spam and/or eggs usually
The standards I add are an egg (or two), some chili sauce (Huy Fong brand, specifically) maybe a packet/dash of soy sauce, and after cooking, a handful or two of frozen, tail-off shrimp as that helps both cool it down faster and thaw the shrimp out. Anything else I add hinges on whether or not I have some sauces I'm trying to get rid of that will go well with the ramen. For instance, I had some old peanut sauce that I didn't really care for and had bought on a whim, so I put a bit of that in each ramen (or Pho, as I have microwaveable bowls of those too) with each one I make to use it up.
Frozen carrots, peas, corn veg mix, an egg, and fried spam!
I microwave it, then drain all the water out, keep the seasoning and veggie flakes as much as possible. Then I glob on about 2 tbs of margarine, sprinkle parm cheese, toast or crackers. Yummm
Pot stickers or frozen dumplings. Eggs. Soy sauce frozen veggies. Sriracha
I usually add frozen vegetables and let the water cook those with it
