The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk the milk and all-purpose flour together until completely smooth. Set this slurry aside.

    About 2 min

    Cook’s note: Using a small jar with a lid to shake the milk and flour is a quick way to make a lump-free slurry.

  2. 2

    In a medium saucepan, combine the water, frozen mixed vegetables, and the ramen seasoning packet. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

    About 5 min

  3. 3

    Add the broken ramen noodles to the pot and cook for 2 minutes, stirring to separate the noodles.

    About 2 min

  4. 4

    Reduce the heat to medium-low. While stirring constantly, slowly pour the milk and flour slurry into the soup.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Pouring the slurry in slowly while stirring prevents the soup from becoming lumpy.

  5. 5

    Continue to simmer, stirring often, for 2 minutes until the soup has thickened.

    About 2 min

  6. 6

    Stir in the diced cooked ham and heat through for one final minute.

    About 1 min

  7. 7

    Remove from the heat and serve immediately.
