After a brief altercation with my banker at the clerk’s desk the other day, I came to realize that now I’m on intern pay, I should eat accordingly.
To fortify everyone’s favorite budget meal to hate:
- boil only just enough water (about .5 liters)
- drop in the ramen block, boil for 1.5 minutes, flip it over
- wisk an egg in your soup bowl, stir it in the pot
- empty the “seasoning” packet into the pot, stir well and serve
Presto!
You can perform inumerable variations on this routine by swapping ingredients and, of course, flavor packets. The oriental ramen is one of my favorites. The one with jalapenos is good too. And for a variety of add-ins try lunch meat, tofu, left-over peas, cocktail shrimp, etc.
