Going in another direction, but ramen is great if you fry it after boiling it. Just drain the water (save it if it’s a broth type as you can add the noodles back after frying), then drop them in a pan with heated oil, fry them for a few minutes, just to the point where the noodles on the bottom start to burn a bit (don’t stir them before this but do stir after to interrupt the burning) and your ramen will have a satisfying crunch.
Buldak ramen is intended to be prepared like that and comes with a thick sauce you add during the fry instead of the boil. Their curry flavour one is amazing, though hard to find.

Wait, so these are noodles fried, boiled, and then fried again?
