A creamy noodle dish blending savory bacon, eggs, and Parmesan with quick ramen for an easy fusion meal.
# Components:
→ Noodles
01 - 2 packs instant ramen noodles, seasoning packets discarded
→ Meats
02 - 4 strips bacon, chopped
→ Dairy
03 - 2 large eggs
04 - ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
05 - 2 tablespoons heavy cream (optional)
→ Aromatics
06 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
→ Liquids
07 - 2 cups water
→ Seasonings
08 - ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
09 - Salt, to taste
→ Garnishes
10 - Reserved bacon pieces (optional)
11 - Additional grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
12 - Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
# Preparation Steps:
01 - Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and add chopped bacon. Cook until crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove one tablespoon of bacon for garnish if desired, leaving the rest and rendered fat in the pot.
02 - Add minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
03 - Add ramen noodles (broken in half if necessary) and 2 cups water to the pot, stirring to ensure noodles are submerged.
04 - Seal the Instant Pot lid and cook on high pressure for 1 minute. Perform a quick pressure release once cooking is complete.
05 - While noodles cook, whisk together eggs, grated Parmesan, heavy cream (if using), and freshly ground black pepper in a separate bowl.
06 - Open the Instant Pot and immediately add the egg mixture to the hot noodles. Stir vigorously to create a creamy sauce, allowing residual heat to gently cook the eggs without scrambling. Season with salt to taste.
07 - Plate immediately, garnishing with reserved bacon, extra Parmesan, and chopped parsley if desired.
