Ramen Noodles for Dinner

Most of my life I've eaten ramen noodles straight out of the packet, first softened in boiing water with the flavour packet stirred in. While blog surfing the other day I came across this recipe for peanut ramen. I was attraced too this recipe mainly because of the peanut butter. My partner is allergic to peanuts so I only ever eat peanut butter when he is not around.

Stir together in a bowl,

1/4 tsp ginger oil
1 tsp fish sauce
1 tsp soy sauce
tsp peanut butter
1/2 tsp garlic powder
hot sauce to taste
chopped cilantro, scallions

Cook ramen in about an inch of water, throw in some broccoli or other vegetable, when noodles are soft and most of the liquid has been absorbed, take off heat and pour into bowl with the sauce ingredients, stir and eat.

Since I've come across this recipe I've eaten it twice and only because my husband is away. Today I added a pan fried salmon steak to serve alongside my peanutty noodles. Even with the addition of the salmon the meal only took about ten minutes to cook.
