Pretty good. Enjoyed it and was quick. Used peas instead of corn, and mixed tofu with some soy sauce and sesame oil before air frying for several minutes to give some texture. Probably could use more flavor overall. Added some lime juice at the end which helped.
This wasn't amazing, but pretty good and a nice upgrade from typical ramen and did come together quickly! I would definitely make this again for a quick, easy meal.
