Marry me ramen

A deliciously fast and comforting ramen!

There’s weeknight dinner… and then there’s Marry Me Ramen – the kind of creamy, slurp-worthy bowl that makes you pause after the first bite and go, okay… this is dangerously good. Inspired by the viral “marry me” recipe trend, this dish combines rich, garlicky, tomato-kissed creaminess with springy ramen noodles for the ultimate comfort-meets-shortcut meal.

In just 10 minutes, simple pantry ingredients come together to create a silky, flavour-packed broth that clings to every strand of noodle. Think sautéed garlic, tomato paste for depth, a splash of cream for indulgence, and melted mozzarella for that irresistible cheesy pull. Finished with fresh chives and a crack of black pepper, it’s cosy, indulgent, and wildly satisfying without being heavy.

This is the kind of easy ramen recipe you make on a busy Tuesday… and then crave again on Wednesday. Perfect for solo dinners, lazy date nights, or anytime you want something that feels a little special with minimal effort. Warning: repeat requests are basically guaranteed. 🍜💍
