  • Stir in the heavy cream and soy sauce, and let it thicken slightly over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the mixed vegetables to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes until tender yet vibrant.
  • Gently toss the cooked ramen noodles into the skillet, ensuring they're well coated with the creamy sauce.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper as needed.

Notes
