Kimchi Ramyeon (김치 라면) is one way to cook delicious Korean instant noodles. There are many different kinds of Korean instant noodles in the Korean or Asian store. Most Korean instant noodles have more flavor and they are spicier than American instant noodles. Adding kimchi gives even more flavor and makes it spicier. I love kimchi ramyeon. However, it is not very healthy, so I recommend not eating this delicious food too often. 😉 I know it is not easy to avoid this temptation. hehe … I hope you will try this someday. 😀

Video Instructions
Main Ingredients
- 1 Pack Korean Ramen (Shin RaMyun)
- 3 Cups Water
- ¼ Cup Kimchi
- 1 Egg
- 1 Chopped Green Onion
- Dried Seaweed to Garnish
Directions
Boil 3 cups of water. Normally we need 2 and one half cups of water to cook one pack of ramyun. However, since you will add some kimchi, you need more water for this recipe. You can use most kinds of Korean ramen for this recipe, but if you like spicy food, I recommend Shin Ramyun from the Nongsim company.
Chop ¼ cup of kimchi into bite sized pieces and finely chop 1 green onion.
Add the kimchi to the boiling water.
Then add the spice packets and cook for 1 minute. In this way, you will get more flavor from the kimchi.
Add the noodles and cook for 3 more minutes. Stir it occasionally.
Add one egg and cook for 2 and a half minutes. Don’t stir, because you don’t want to have a strong egg flavor in your ramyun.
When the egg white has cooked, break the yoke.
Add the chopped green onion when 15 seconds are left. Save a few green onion pieces to garnish.
Garnish with the green onion and seaweed. The seaweed is optional. Enjoy! 😉

Hi Aeri,
I love your website. I love Korean food so it was enjoyable to read through the recipes and especially the ingredients bcos I’m lost about some of them. Just yesterday(b4 I read ur blog) I had some shin ramyun and decided to add kimchi. It was so much better. Lol.
Is it possible to post up a recipe of cold noodles? I’ve had it a couple of times and it’s getting yummier everytime I try it.
Aeri says
Hi, twilight
Thanks for your comment. I’m very happy to meet you !!! 🙂
Yes, I can understand you because I will have some problem if I try to cook some other country foods. I’m happy that you enjoyed your ramyun with kimchi in it. cold noodles??
It’s spicy one ?? or not spicy ??
it has lots of broth or it doesn’t ??
because we have different kinds of cold noodles in Korea.
p.s by the way.. twilight.. the name is related with “twilight zone” ?? hehe. my husbands showed me that show before. 😉 I just wondered..hehe
twilight says
Hi Aeri,
Thanks for the reply. Twilight is just an alias I’ve used for years. =)
The noodles I had were served with cold broth. Not spicy but a little sour. Some restaurants served it with an ice block in the soup. It also has hard boiled egg. Texture is chewy and the noodles are brown in colour.
Thanks,
twilight
Aeri says
Hi, twilight
I heard of the meaning “twilight” from my husband this morning. I like it.. hehe

Yep..I will post it for you someday. 😉

i SUGGEST YOU USE CHINESE sHANGHAINESE NOOLDES OR UDON IN PLACE OF RAMEN NOOLDES . iT IS THICKER , SOFTER AND CAN ABSORD MORE FLAVOUR AND MADE OUT OF ENTIRELY WHEAT FLOUR SO YOU WON’T HAVE HELATH PROBLEM !

I am so glad that I found your website today. I have been looking for an authentic Korean recipes to try out. Since my grandmother has passed over a decade ago I’ve haven’t had much of Korean food unless I go eat at a Korean restaurant. I want to be able to make some Korean dishes for my daughter. Thank you so much for posting all your recipes! You have no idea how happy I am to find your website. It all looks and sounds delicious! 😆

maia says
Hi aeris! I have a pot I use especially for ranyeoj. It is a gold 26 cm pot I brought in Lotte. I want to ask whether it is aluminum or steel. Do you use it as well? I have read recently that it is not healthy to use aluminum pots…. I want to know what type of pot it is and if you use a pot like that. 😀 h
Aeri Lee says
Hi maia,
Sorry I tried to guess what you got and what ranyeoj is..but failed to guess. Can you send me a picture ?? sorry again.
maia says
It’s ramyeon. I mispelled the word. Haha 🙂
The gold aluminum pot for ramyun. I want to whether it is okay to use those kinds of pots or not. Because aluminum may affect or rwct the food. Do you us3 the same pot as mine? (Google images:aluminum pot foe ramyun) I’m sorry, I cannot post a picture here….. also, can I still add mandu in kimchi ramyun? 🙂
Aeri Lee says
hi maia,
haha.. not I got it. Yes, you are right. Aluminum is not good for your health..and now I know what you are talking about that gold aluminum pot. I will say just use normal stainless pot. Yes, you can add mandu in your kimchi ramyun. 🙂 thanks
