🧑‍🍳 Recipe analysis notes

Supplementary notes from the video analysis. Please check the original video before cooking.

⚠️ Where this goes wrong

• If you don't drain enough water from the soft tofu, the gratin may become watery, so adjust microwave time to keep it moist.
• If you don't cut the Cup Noodle small enough, the texture might clump; if you cut it too large, it might not blend well with other ingredients.
• Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave's specifications, so check if the cheese is fully melted and the shrimp are cooked, then adjust the time accordingly.

🔄 Substitutions

• Instead of Cup Noodle Rosé flavor, you can use 1 package of another cream or tomato-based instant ramen, or add 2-3 tablespoons of rosé sauce to regular ramen.
• Instead of shrimp, you can add 50-70g of finely diced chicken breast or bacon to boost protein.
• If you don't have mozzarella cheese, you can substitute with 60g of cheddar cheese or pizza cheese, and sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.

🎚️ Adjusting the taste

• To reduce spiciness, halve the amount of Cup Noodle Rosé flavor seasoning packet, or substitute with a mild cream-flavored ramen.
• To lower the sodium content, reduce the amount of salt added to the soft tofu to 1 pinch, and use only about 2/3 of the Cup Noodle seasoning packet.
• To adjust sweetness, reduce the amount of Cup Noodle seasoning packet, or choose another cream-flavored ramen with lower sugar content.

✔️ Verification notes

• Ensure enough water has been removed from the soft tofu so it's not too watery but still retains its moisture.
• After microwaving, check that the mozzarella cheese is fully melted and the shrimp are cooked pink, and cook further if necessary.
