Uncle Dobo’s Ramen Omelet

Uncle Dobo's Note:

This is a very popular recipe with my family of sisters and their kids. Both my sisters claim this recipe as "theirs." ;) Good for breakfast or even dinner. I’ve heard that a lot of college kids and bachelors like this one, too. It tastes great, but since it’s full of butter, noodles, and cheese it’s not something I make often.

• Total Time: 15 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 2

• 1 (3 ounce) package ramen noodles
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 2 tablespoons chopped onions or 2 tablespoons chopped scallions or 2 tablespoons chopped chives, to taste
• grated parmesan cheese, for garnish (optional)
• Tabasco sauce, for serving (optional)
• salsa, for serving (optional)

Directions:

1. Cook the ramen according to package directions, but without adding the seasoning packet (too much sodium, so toss the packet). Drain well.
2. Melt the butter in a pan, then add the Parmesan and stir well. The cheese should almost become like a paste together with the butter.
3. Add the cooked noodles and stir well to coat.
4. In a bowl mix together the egg and onion/scallion/chives.
5. Pour the egg mixture over the noodles in the pan and stir well.
6. Cook omelet until egg has set, then flip half of the omelet over the other.
7. You can garnish with extra Parmesan, if you like. Serve.
8. Makes 2 big servings.

Great noodly omelet! I had to quit eating Ramen because of the high sodium so I really liked step #1 (THROW IT OUT!) I did use a little less butter and Parm with a chopped green onion. This was very yummy! I will be making it again, Thanks for sharing the recipe Uncle Dobo! Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup Game.

Really enjoyed this. I made it specifically for my vegetarian daughter who thought that it was very good. Next time I might add a dash of dried Italian seasonings. I made the omelet using 1 minced green onion. I can also see doing something Asian with this recipe, adding cooked shrimp or pork would be good also.
