Okay - many of you know that I do quite a bit of grilling. So i thought that I would try to grill some ramen (2 ways) and serve with asparagus.
Ingredients:
Chicken flavored ramen
Hot banana pepper
Lime
Sugar
Chicken broth
Rice vinegar
Sesame seed oit
Tamari
My home made hot Asian sauce (thanks again to JayT for the idea)
My home made garlic and thai chile sauce (Sriracha)
Mix all ingredients together in bowl. I used the hot Asian sauce for 1 version and the garlic/Thai for the other:
Soak Ramen noodles for about 20 minutes (while the grill fires). I also marinated the aspargus in the garlic/Thai sauce.
Next up - trying to grill these . . .
Pic of some of the already used ingredients plus POL. 18 cents per package.

Kung Fu Shrimp Ramen Sushi
Here's some teasin' n' pleasin' for y'all.
If I recollect correctly, the noodles were fitty cents a pack so therefore POL is .50.
$4.99 a pound imported from India shrimps. $4.99 a pound is some cheapass shrimps. Tasted like it too. Metallic and earthy taste notes definitely pointed to the fact they were raised in some sort of cage shrimp prison farm. No matter. Went all Black Betty on 'em with half and half olive oil and butter and splooged 'em with Sriracha, the miracle sauce.
The noodles came with 2 mystery packets. One was some seasoning with no shrimp flavor other than salt and the other some mystery oil. Could be sperm whale oil, I dunno'.
Took about 3 minutes to rehydrate the stuff.
Theeweed...
Doped the roll up with green onions, the roosterfied kung fu prison shrimps and more rooster.
Crazy...

I shoulda' mentioned that I tossed it in the noodles after they were cooked and drained. Keptem' from being overly sticky and made for much easier handling.

In keeping with the spirit of cheapness and ramen, I went with the cheapness for the sauces too. I was also dulling the pain from some sunburnt legs with tequila and was
to say the least.

Most likely a Magnavox black and white console in that room too!
GRILLED RAMEN NOODLES:
I forgot the POL. The ramen noodles were 18 cents each.
All I did was try something new on the grill. Not sure if i meet the rules or not, but they were surprisingly good. Parts were crunchy, parts were soft. The asparagus was great. The 2 different flavors of sauce worked well with each other.
Ingredients:
Chicken flavored ramen
Hot banana pepper
Lime
Sugar
Chicken broth
Rice vinegar
Sesame seed oit
Tamari
My home made hot Asian sauce (thanks again to JayT for the idea)
My home made garlic and thai chile sauce (Sriracha)
On the grill:
Off the grill an on the plate. Grilled the noodles about 3 minutes per side. Grilled the asparagus about 8 minutes total. I added the remaining sauce on top of each of the grilled noodles prior to serving.
