# What You Need:
→ Ramen
01 - 1 package (3 oz) instant ramen noodles, flavor packet reserved or discarded
02 - 1 large egg
→ Cheese Filling
03 - 4 slices (2.8 oz) cheddar cheese or cheese of choice
04 - 2 teaspoons hot sauce, adjust to taste
→ For Cooking
05 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
06 - Salt and pepper, to taste
# How to Make:
01 - Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add ramen noodles and cook for 2 minutes until just tender. Drain thoroughly and let cool slightly.
02 - In a mixing bowl, beat the egg. Add the drained noodles, season lightly with salt and pepper, and mix until noodles are evenly coated.
03 - Divide the noodle mixture into four equal portions. Press each portion into a ring mold or small bowl lined with parchment paper to compact into patties approximately the size of sandwich bread slices.
04 - Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Fry noodle patties in batches for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and crisp. Remove and set aside.
05 - Place two noodle patties on a clean surface. Top each with two slices of cheddar cheese and drizzle with hot sauce. Cover with remaining patties to form sandwiches.
06 - Wipe the skillet clean. Add remaining butter and return sandwiches to the pan. Cook over low heat, pressing gently, for 2 to 3 minutes per side until cheese is melted and exteriors are crispy.
07 - Slice sandwiches in half and serve hot.
