My Pro TipS
Tips and Tricks
- Don’t overcook the noodles – slightly firm noodles hold up best when tossed with sauce.
- Keep the heat medium-high so the veggies get that nice stir-fry char.
- Add more soy sauce or water as needed if you prefer extra saucy noodles.
Recipe FAQs – Ramen Noodle Stir Fry
Yes, any combination of bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots works well.
Definitely! Add chili garlic sauce, sriracha, or red pepper flakes to taste.
Yes, but use a larger skillet or wok so the noodles and veggies stir evenly.

I made this added but organic molasses to mine and used the packet from the shrimp flavored noodles as I don’t eat meat and it came out delish, thank -you!!
Wow this turned out great, was looking for something mild and easy but still tasty and this far exceeded expectations! Very tasty without any work at all – thanks Julia!
We just had your tamali casserole last night and it was super filling! I was worried it wouldn’t be enough for my hubby and I, but my dad ALSO showed up lol. Ended up being plenty, with enough leftovers for 2 lunches. I admit, I had several things on-hand that were “spanish meal themed”, such as chips, queso cheese, quacamole dip, etc. and we added a few of those things, but it WAS great with just the tomatoes I added! Tonight, I’m going with the Ramen stir-fry, but I HAVE to add some can chicken, since my hubby is very much a meat eater and he’ll feel “deprived”. I’m sure it’s great without it, but I’m going to sauté some with the vegetables and he’ll have to suck it up lol. Thanks a bunch for your YouTube channel! You have no clue the weight lifted from my shoulders, knowing that we can eat home cooked meals for a fraction of what we tend to spend on groceries, everything skyrocketing in the store. AND, your meals are based on the “easy factor” as well. I have chronic fatigue due to MS and don’t cook often because of the cleanup. It’s draining just to cook involved meals, but then have to clean the dishes as well, it’s too much. I could wait until the next day, but I wouldn’t be able to until after work, which I have to do that too. By the time I get home, I’m too exhausted to worry with it. Your meals use very few dishes to wash & ingredients to buy, plus they’re super flavorful which will help us not to feel too deprived. Thanks again!!
Julia I have to be honest this recipe kind of tasted like it was missing something still loved it my 2 year old really enjoyed it
Amazing recipe aaand it was on a budget! I love this!
We made this tonight and it was a hit. My husband loved it! I added thin cuts of beef and it was amazing. Thank you Julia!
I made this for dinner tonight, and it was delicious. I think next time I might cook the vegetables in sesame oil. Thank you for sharing, Julia!
This is such a great recipe! My family(myself, husband and adult daugher) really enjoyed it and we will have this for dinner often.
I saw this on YouTube and decided to try. It’s pretty good, and very filling. I think it would be great next time with added protein.
Hi, Julia ! Loved the recipe ! It was delicious ! Can this be frozen to be served later ? Sorry if that’s an answer that’s obvious !
Hi! I love your videos and I just found your blog! I made this and loved it! I have 3 big boys at my house plus a husband. I added another bag of veggies and 2 Ramen season packets.
I have tried and love many of your recipes and you are my favorite go-to for changing up our routine menu. I admit, I didn’t know how your stir-fry Ramen noodles were going to be. So, in a pinch for tonight’s dinner, I tried it out. My teenager says it’s better than Panda! THANK YOU for this recipe! It’s a new family favorite!
