Kimchi Ramen Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Picture (and recipe) From tastespotting.com

While hunting around for creative recipes I found found this^; a grilled cheese with kimchi and ramen INSIDE IT! No, not as a side of soup, INSIDE! For those who have never heard of Kimchi, it most commonly consists of spicy, and salty fermented napa cabbage, and Korean radish. It tends to be and aquired taste, and I haven't had it myself, but if you like trying new things I suggest you give it a try. I myself am looking forward to trying this recipe. If you try it, and like it be sure to check out more interesting eats at tastespotting.com. And now, on to the recipe!

What you'll need:

½ package of ramen, any flavor
½ of the ramen seasoning packet
handful of kimchi, chopped and squeezed of excess kimchi juice (if you don't like kimchi or don't feel like trying it, feel free to substitute with something else spicy)
1 tablespoons oil for cooking
2 tablespoon butter, softened
2 thick slices very sturdy bread
handful of mozzarella or jack cheese
handful American or Cheddar cheese

Directions:

Cook the ramen according to the directions on the package.

Drain the ramen noodles of the cooking liquid (use a colander), then put the noodles back into the pot or into a bowl. Pour the contents of half the seasoning packet over the noodles. Toss the noodles to combine. Set aside to prepare sandwich.

Heat olive oil in a frying pan over low heat.

Spread the outside of both slices of bread with softened butter. Place both slices of bread buttered-side down in the oil in the pan. Pile one slice with mozzarella/jack cheese; pile the other slice of bread with American/Cheddar cheese. Cook until bread is toasted and cheese has melted.

Remove the grilled bread with cheese to a plate or cutting board. Pile as much ramen noodles on one slice of the bread as you’d like. Add chopped kimchi (or something else spicy of your choice) on top. Close the sandwich with the other slice of grilled bread and cheese. Press together firmly. 

And, the most important direction of all... EAT IT.
