COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
General Tso’s Ramen Omelette

Pickled Veggies

Slice daikon, cucumber, and carrots into 2” matchsticks. Combine with salt, vinegar, sugar, and water in a storable container. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours (half a day is best).

Quick General Tso’s Chicken

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except oil, garlic, and ginger. Whisk together until well-combined.
In small pan over medium-high heat, add oil, garlic, and ginger. Cook until fragrant. Pour in liquid mixture and bring to simmer. Continue simmering to thicken sauce to desired consistency, whisking frequently. Remove from heat and add chicken, tossing to evenly coat. Set aside.

General Tso’s Ramen Omelette (makes 2)

Cook 1 pack of ramen according to package directions. Do not season yet with seasoning packet.
Once ramen has cooked, drain and transfer to a medium bowl. Season with seasoning packet and 1 Tbsp chili crisp. Toss to evenly coat.
In a large pan over medium heat, melt 1/2 Tbsp butter. Add ramen and spread out evenly. Pour 3 scrambled eggs evenly over the ramen. Lift the pan and lightly swirl the egg/ramen mixture to evenly spread out the egg and shift it toward the bottom of the pan. Cook for 1-2 mins or until the egg has begun to set.
Top with ~6 pieces of General Tso’s Chicken and Pickled Veggies to taste. Fold omelette in half. Immediately transfer to serving plate.
Repeat with remaining ingredients for second General Tso’s Ramen Omelette.
Garnish with mayo, sriracha, scallions, and furikake. Enjoy!
