Unorganized Cooking: Leek Ramen
You know, initially, this recipe had different ingredients, even a poached egg; but, logic and multiple sources told me that poaching an egg in the microwave is a bad idea, because:
- If the yolk is undercooked, somebody might get salmonella and I would potentially get sued
- An overcooked egg yolk could explode in the microwave and if you take it out at horrendous timing, it would result in nasty 3rd degree burns. Oh yeah, and I would also, potentially if not definitely, get sued.
So yeah. This is the revised, safer version.
Ingredients:
- Ramen
- Lemon
- Sriracha
- Leek
- Water
- Instant Rice
Cooking Time: 10 minutes or less. (Unlike those annoying artichokes that shaved several weeks off my life expectancy. Don’t know why I willingly go back to eating it.)
Instructions:
- First, chop leek stalk into rings, like onions
- Microwave the rice for however long the instructions say to do it
- Microwave the water for 3-4 minutes
- Once done microwaving, add in the ramen, leek, and rice
- Squeeze in some lemo- and, oh my, why is it seedless?
- Apply sriracha to your liking, whether that’d be mild to profusely sweating levels of heat, although I do feel bad for your stomach lining.
- Stir in all of the ingredients
- And that’s about it.
A lesson has been learned yesterday (or 19th of May since this isn’t published today). Not exactly related to this recipe, but was pan frying IKEA salmon meatballs and I thought they were done. They looked done. Some of them were still frigid on the inside and I ate them all. As we all know, raw seafood isn’t exactly the best idea to eat, so let this be a lesson that slightly overcooked is better than severely undercooked, that is unless you’re doing eggs in the microwave then that’s just asking for trouble.
