Air Fryer Ramen Bun Burger for One

Cinco de Mayo - Pasta and Noodle

I ate a lot of instant ramen noodles as a kid and still enjoy them now on occasion. As an adult, I started experimenting with them to try different ways of eating them other than the package directions. This one isn't the most feasible but it was a lot of fun to make. The bun is seasoned and crunchy so it's like you get the burger, bun, and chips in every bite. I like to top mine with Sriracha mayo, red onions, and baby spinach but feel free to use your favorite toppings.

Directions

Step 1

Pour water into a large saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Drop noodles in and boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for 2 minutes. Drain.

Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Meanwhile whisk egg and 1/2 of the reserved seasoning packet together in a bowl. Gently stir in noodles until they are evenly coated. Divide noodles into 2 small round containers which helps make more uniform buns.

Step 4

Spray the basket of the air fryer with nonstick spray. Dump one portion of noodles into the basket. Flatten the noodle mixture with a spatula to form the bun. Cook for 4 minutes. Flip the bun over using a spatula and cook until desired brownness about 4 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining noodles.

Step 5

Sprinkle remaining seasoning over the beef and form into a patty. Air fry for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for 4 minutes more. Sandwich the patty between the ramen buns.
