Instructions

Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 12 oz fresh ramen noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes until just tender but still firm. Drain and toss immediately with 2 tbsp vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Divide noodles into 4 equal portions and shape each into a compact patty using your hands.
Step 3: Grill each noodle patty for 3-4 minutes per side until crispy and charred edges form.
Step 4: Meanwhile, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp red chili flakes, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp rice vinegar in a bowl.
Step 5: Transfer grilled noodle patties to a serving platter and drizzle with the spicy sesame-ginger sauce. Sprinkle with 3 thinly sliced scallions and 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds.
Step 6: Serve immediately as a smoky, spicy noodle dish with crunchy texture.
