Everyday kitchen measurements

For 2 servings. Use a small 180 ml paper cup, a level eating spoon (about 15 ml) and a small teaspoon (about 5 ml).

How to fill the cup and spoons

Use the same cup and spoons throughout. Their sizes vary, so these amounts are approximate. Spoon flour in loosely and level the top without pressing. Measure vegetables after chopping, without packing them down. The amounts in g/ml are the original reference quantities. For part of a pack, use the specified pack weight and divide the contents evenly.

    If eggs are unavailable, use 100 g firm tofu crumbled into the hot pan and cook until steaming; texture and flavour change.

Helpful tips

A paper cup is 180 ml. Keep cooked rice and eggs below 4°C; refrigerate rice quickly after cooking and use within 24 hours. Reheat rice only once until steaming hot; cook egg completely. Ramyeon often contains wheat, soy and other allergens; read the packet. Cook only outdoors where your campsite permits the equipment. Use clean drinking water and utensils. Keep perishable food at 4°C or below in a cooler; chill leftovers within 2 hours, or within 1 hour above 32°C.
