This was how my Korean mother made ramen for us when I was growing up (but without the potato). It makes the ramen a lot more filling... kind of like an egg drop soup. If it ends up really milky, you probably put in the egg too quickly or the soup was not hot enough to cook it almost instantly. Make sure the broth is boiling hot and pour in stops and starts to give the egg a chance to cook. I also try to push the noodles to one side to I can pour the egg in clumps.

I seems like it is suppose to be good but I believe I left my potato in to long. I have a picture. Could you please tell me if it is suppose to look like this. Over all It was still good.

This is a good way to jazz up ramen noodles. I chopped the potatoes into a tiny dice and thinly slice the green onion. We liked this, I used a shrimp flavored ramen noodle and think the next time I may take a couple shrimp, chop them up ande add them at the end. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us.
