Many people have written on the numerous ways to get ramen to taste good or all the things you can do with it so I will skip that.
Instead I propose using the humble rice cooker. This overlooked kitchen device is a marvel of bachelor chow. What most people don’t know is that you can make one pot meals with it. Throw your ingredients in it, click the high heat switch and when it clicks to maintenance temp it is done!
What I do is put meat veggies and spices in the same pot and just add extra water. I have had great success with this and when it’s done you can add sauces and cheeses if you wish for extra flavor. I have tried both raw and cooked meats and the rice cooker cooked them good.
Tips: if you have the steamer attachment use it for better tasting veggies. Meatballs in this are awesome. A bit of garlic or onion adds a nice bit of zest. Don’t add cheese during the cooking process since it comes out a bit odd.
ProTip: Rice and green peas are a complete protein so adding green peas to your rice means you don’t have to add as much meat and green peas are eminently cheap. When doing this please spring for frozen green peas since you will need all the nutrients you can get.
Downside: The bottom of the rice cooking pot tends to get a layer of crustier rice so you can’t use all the rice you put in but it’s a small price to pay for lazy one pot cooking.
