How to Make Ramen Carbonara
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.
- Add the ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions, about 3–4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the diced pancetta or bacon until crispy, around 4–5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for about 30 seconds.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, and black pepper until well-blended.
- Add the drained ramen noodles to the skillet with the pancetta and garlic, tossing everything together gently.
- Quickly pour the egg and cheese mixture over the hot noodles, tossing vigorously to create a creamy sauce.
- Taste your Ramen Carbonara, adjusting with salt and extra black pepper, if needed. Serve immediately.
Notes
Optional: Add sautéed vegetables for an extra burst of flavor. For the best texture, cook noodles until just tender and toss quickly with sauce to avoid scrambling the eggs.
