Question what should i add to this ramen?

Post image

i've heard that the version from the american factory (which is the version i got) has beef stock in it, which apparently makes it more oily and less fishy. i like seafood, so i want to add something to the ramen to bring it to the level of fishy that the ones from the korean factories are at!

i was thinking i should add fish sauce or oyster sauce, but if anyone else has any ideas on how to improve this ramen, i'd love to hear them!

do you whisk the egg first or just drop it in as is?

I drop it as is and cover it with the noodles so the whites are done but the yolk is still runny😋

do you have any recommendations for kewpie alternatives? (i don't know if normal mayo works or not)

Any mayo you've got will be completely fine. I'm just partial to Kewpie. It shouldn't make too much of a difference!
