Hot Sauce of Oblivion – SkyRamen
The fifth and final winner of our Hot Sauce of Oblivion competition was Amber Boughen with her very special SkyRamen. Being an Asian dish, I was worried as to how I would go. I am whiter than shaved coconut when it comes to cooking and often struggle to replicate the complexities of the hundreds and thousands of wonderful Asian dishes that make mouths water everywhere.
Thankfully, Amber sent me clear instructions so even Whitey McWhitey here couldn’t stuff it up and it came out a treat. It even got my boys eating veggies, which is a feat in of itself. So make sure you watch the video below and see how even one such as I can crank out cracking ramen that is guaranteed to satisfy.
There are still a couple of bottles of The Hot Sauce of Oblivion to giveaway. Don’t forget to tell us in the form below where Mehrunes Dagon (aka big demon dude) is hiding in the video and you could win!
