Notes

Feel free to use the traditional stove method:

Bring water to rolling simmer with ramen seasonings in a shallow pan. Cook ramen on each side for 30 secs on medium heat. Loosen the noodles and add the egg. Place the cheese slices and cook until they start to melt and egg white look opaque. Turn off the heat and enjoy!
