How to Make Kylie Jenner’s Ramen Recipe
This recipe is straightforward to prepare, and in less than 10 minutes, you are set to enjoy your meal. You will need the following ingredients to start preparing Kylie Jenner’s Ramen.
- One instant ramen noodle pack (chicken or beef).
- One cup of boiling water.
- One tablespoon of butter.

Though Kylie Jenner did not specify the flavor of the ramen noodles she made, my favorite is chicken-flavored ramen, so I used that. You, on the other hand, can use any flavor you prefer.
Now that you have all your ingredients in place, let us get down to cooking;
Step 1
Cook the ramen according to package instructions. (While the ramen is cooking, crack open the egg into a bowl, beat properly with a fork, and set this aside).
Step 2
Get a saucepan and add the ramen once it is ready. Add more water (a tablespoon or two) and boil gently.
Step 3
Now, set your cooker to medium heat. Then add the garlic powder and butter and stir until everything is evenly distributed.
Step 4
Add the beaten egg and cook for one additional minute.
Step 5
Finally, serve your steaming hot ramen in a bowl and enjoy!
