This is my version of the famous Kylie Jenner Ramen. It’s easy, flavorful, and so good!

You don’t need me to tell you who Ms. Kylie Jenner is. You probably wouldn’t have clicked on this recipe if you didn’t know her. With her massive following, when she posted a picture of her ramen with her recipe on how she makes it, it was no surprise that it went viral and everyone needed to make it (including myself). This Kylie Jenner ramen is inspired by her recipe with my own spin on it.

🍲 Ingredients

Tamari: Tamari is a Japanese sauce made from fermented soybeans. It’s thicker than soy sauce, and it’s vegan and gluten-free. You can always substitute tamari for soy sauce in recipes when needed. You won’t notice a drastic difference.

Sambal: Sambal is chili sauce or paste, it’s made of a mix of chili peppers with a series of other ingredients like garlic, ginger, and lime juice. It adds a ton of flavor and is so versatile in a lot of recipes. I like to have this in my fridge at all times because it’s often called for in Asian cuisine and Asian-inspired dishes.

Black Garlic: For this recipe I used black garlic. You probably want to know what black garlic is. Essentially it is a type of aged garlic and has a brownish-black color. You can buy black garlic in a jar, but if you can’t find it, you can substitute it for regular garlic.

👩‍🍳 How to Make Kylie Jenner’s Ramen

Boil the water. Add water to a medium-sized pot and bring to a boil.
Cook the noodles. Add the ramen noodles and cook until al dente. This won’t take too long.
Add the noodles to a pot. Rinse and strain the noodles and add to a large pan over medium-high heat along with ½ cup of water.
Prepare the egg. In a small bowl, crack the egg and whisk, then add it to the pan while continuing to mix.
Add remaining ingredients. Next, add all of the remaining ingredients, mixing until combined, and the egg is cooked.
Garnish. Remove the ramen from the heat, garnish it with sesame seeds, and enjoy!

🪄 Tips and Tricks

Customization: Make this dish your own by playing with the ingredients. For example, you can make it spicier by adding in some hot chilis, or hot sauce.
Noodles: Make sure you don’t overcook the noodles. Ramen noodles take less time to cook than a traditional pasta noodle, and you don’t want your noodles to be mushy.
Add fresh ingredients: For your garnish, adding something like fresh herbs (basil is great) or bean sprouts on top can really kick it up a notch.

🗒 Variations

I love ramen and have so many tasty ramen recipes on my blog. If you aren’t feeling this recipe, or you want a different ramen to try, here are some variations you can try:

Creamy Vegan Ramen : Uses peanut butter for the creaminess, and tempeh for the protein
Mushroom Ramen: Made with a chili garlic sauce, and earthy mushrooms
Kimchi Ramen: Using the flavorful fermented kimchi to up the flavor value

🗒 Substitutions

There are a few simple substitutions you can make in this ramen recipe to really make it your own. Here’s what I recommend:

Noodles: Instead of using instant ramen packages, you can use regular ramen noodle cakes, gluten-free noodles, or lotus noodles instead
Protein: If you prefer a different protein than tofu, you can add in whatever you have on hand. Chicken is a great option or shrimp. Just make sure it is cooked before adding it in

🗒 Best served with

Vietnamese Inspired Cabbage Salad
Spicy Cucumber Salad
Dutch Oven Bread with Seeds

👝 How to Store Leftovers

Store the ramen in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 – 4 days. Reheat to serve.

🤔 Common Questions

Store bought ramen can have a lot of sodium in it, but if you make it homemade, generally, all the ingredients are good for you. Especially if you add your own seasoning, veggies, and protein to make it a more well-rounded meal.

Ramen is a Japanese adaptation of Chinese wheat noodle soups.

Literally the options are endless. Chicken, shrimp, tofu, or tempeh, can all be great additions to protein.
