This creamy spicy garlic ramen tastes like something you'd wait in line for, but it comes together in about 20 minutes. The secret is the broth: egg yolks, spicy Kewpie mayo, and a slice of American cheese get whisked with hot noodle broth into something silky, rich, and a little spicy. Our spicy garlic toppings cook right in with the noodles so the flavor goes all the way through. Finish it with soft-boiled eggs marinated overnight in soy, rice vinegar, and sesame oil for that perfect jammy center, a spoonful of chili crisp, and our fish cakes if you have them. Make the eggs the night before and this one's an easy weeknight upgrade.
