How to make miso butter noodles

Bring a small pot of water to a boil (I use freshly boiled water from the kettle to speed up the process). While the water is coming to a boil, melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat. Stir in the miso paste, soy sauce and honey and whisk together until smooth. Add the instant ramen to the pot of water and cook for 1 minute or two until al dente. Drain and add to the miso butter then toss to coat. Serve with chilli oil and sliced spring onions.
