Re noodles - presume the stock was for creating a sauce, not boiling the noodles in. I confess my noodle adventures are still quite restrained.
I did cook the noodles in the stock - which had been made by simmering the sausages in water to parcook them before slicing.

The rest of the ramen ingredients just went in so they'd all be cooked just at serving time. I like a generous amount of liquid in ramen, so that worked out fine too. I still have about a half cupful of stock left, and the cold bangers so might do a hash with them and some potat if I get ambitious tomorrow. Or maybe a stirfry ...
