Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 packs instant ramen noodles
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Sliced green onions, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Boil the ramen noodles according to package directions until tender, drain, and set aside.
  2. In the same pot over medium heat, melt the butter and cook the garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant. Remove from heat.
  3. Stir in the milk and shredded cheddar until the cheese melts into a smooth sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Return the noodles to the pot and toss until well coated. Serve immediately with green onions.

Notes

Grate the cheese off a block for the smoothest sauce, and be sure to take the pot off the heat before you stir it in. If you want a looser sauce, add a tablespoon of the starchy pasta water at a time until it looks right.
