Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Creamy Sauce
Add the Buldak sauce, Kewpie mayonnaise, fresh cream, grated Parmesan, and Cheddar cheese to a small pan.
Cook over low heat, stirring continuously until the ingredients are well combined and the cheese has melted into a smooth, creamy sauce.
Step 2: Add the Noodles
Add the Buldak noodles to the pan along with a small amount of water.

Simmer for about 2–3 minutes, or until the noodles are fully cooked and the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

Allow them to warm through for a minute or two while gently mixing them with the creamy sauce.

Cut the soft-boiled egg in half and place it on top of the noodles.
Garnish with chopped green onions and drizzle generously with chili oil for extra heat and flavor.
Step 5: Serve
Serve immediately while the ramen is hot, creamy, and cheesy.

- Stir the noodles well to make sure every strand is coated with the creamy sauce.
- Use less Buldak sauce if you prefer a milder level of spice.
- Add extra Parmesan or Cheddar for a richer, cheesier flavor.
- Serve immediately because the noodles will continue absorbing the sauce as they sit.
- For an extra spicy ramen, add more chili oil before serving.
