Carefully split the dry ramen noodles in half horizontally to create two thinner layers. This is a crucial step to ensure your fried ramen noodles get extra crispy all the way through.
Preheat your deep frying machine or a deep pot with oil to 170 C (340 F). Fry the noodles until they reach a beautiful light golden brown.
In a small saucepan, combine all the sauce ingredients: Gochujang, ketchup, sugar, oligosaccharide, minced garlic, and water.
Stir well over medium heat. Let it come to a boil and once it starts bubbling, turn off the heat immediately.
While the noodles are still warm, use a cooking brush to apply a generous amount of the sauce to both the front and back of the fried ramen.This ensures every bite of your Korean ramen snack is packed with that nostalgic sweet and spicy flavor.
Pro Tip: Watch them closely when you fry the ramen noodles! They can go from golden to burnt very quickly. Once done, place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
