Raman noodles are the ones that come in a sort of brick shape with the noodles arranged in complicated wave patterns. They are wheat based, but of course noodle scan be made from other grains. The Chinese, as far back as the Qing dynasty, when noodles were deep fried to preserve them.

Raman noodles are mixed with oil so that they can be cooked quickly in boiling water – 3-5 minutes will be all it takes. Often they are sold in packs with a flavouring packet, but you can use them with your own flavoring added - from hoisen sauce to barbecue as you like.
