Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).
Peel the garlic cloves, add to a small dish or ramekin. Pour olive oil on top. I like to add enough oil to cover the garlic.
Cover it and place it in the oven for 30-40 minutes.
The garlic should be cooked until it turns light golden and becomes soft enough to poke through with a knife.
Boil the ramen noodles on the stove as per the package directions. Mine take about 4 minutes.
2 minutes before the ramen is done, start on the peanut sauce. With a slotted spoon or fork, remove the garlic and add it to a food processor with the peanut butter, maple syrup, soy sauce, and hot water. Pulse.
Note: the sauce makes enough for two portions (double the ramen if needed). You can also make one very saucy portion but the calories will be high.
Drain the ramen and mix it with the creamy peanut sauce. Enjoy with scallions, sesame seeds, crushed peanuts, chilli oil, or anything you like on top!
