02 - 4 strips bacon, chopped
→ Dairy
03 - 2 large eggs
04 - ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
05 - 2 tablespoons heavy cream (optional for extra creaminess)

# Method Steps:
01 - Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add chopped bacon and cook until crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove one tablespoon of bacon for garnish, leaving the rest and bacon fat in the pot.
02 - Add minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
03 - Add ramen noodles, breaking in half if necessary, and pour in 2 cups of water. Stir gently to fully submerge the noodles.
04 - Seal the Instant Pot lid and cook on high pressure for 1 minute. Perform a quick pressure release once finished.
05 - While noodles cook, whisk together eggs, Parmesan cheese, heavy cream (if using), and black pepper in a bowl.
06 - Open the Instant Pot. Working swiftly, pour the egg mixture into the hot noodles and stir vigorously to form a creamy sauce, ensuring the eggs cook without scrambling. Season with salt to taste.
07 - Plate immediately and garnish with reserved bacon, extra grated Parmesan, and chopped parsley as desired.
