Serves 1

Ingredients

½ a bunch of broccolini or ½ a small crown of broccoli

2 oz Ramen noodles (see Note)

1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

1 tablespoon Maya Kaimal Chili Crisp, plus more for garnish

Butter

1 egg

Salt and pepper

1 scallion, sliced

Notes

You can buy a single package of ramen soup and just use the noodles.

Preparation

Step 1
Wash the broccolini and trim off the tough stem ends, or cut broccoli into 1”florets.

Step 2
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil.

Step 3
Drop the vegetable in the pot and boil until bright green and tender-crisp, 3-5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove it to a bowl, leaving the water in the pot.

Step 4
Now add the noodles to the pot and cook according to package directions. When done, drain and add to the bowl with the vegetables. Drizzle with sesame oil and 1 tablespoon Maya Kaimal Chili Crisp and toss to blend.

Step 5
In a small frying, melt a little butter over medium heat. Crack in your egg and fry to your desired doneness; flip if you like, but we recommend keeping the yolk runny either way. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and place over the noodles.

Step 6
Garnish with scallions and additional Maya Kaimal Chili Crisp.
