We love Asian food and not long ago we went to a Japanese food restaurant and we stuffed ourselves with Japanese food. We also had Ramen which is one of our favourites as it is so filling, warm and such comfort food. We decided to have a go at preparing our own and the result was quite delicious I must say. Amanda and myself loved it. It is quite easy and quick to prepare. Unfortunately we had no Nori seaweed but we used some spinach instead! Ramen is not one dish, it is actually a broth based soup with toppings, usually the broth is either fish or meat based. Make sure you serve it in a large bowl!! Give it a go, it's delicious!! For 3/4 people you will need...
- 1 litre chicken stock
- 500ml pork stock
- 500ml vegetable stock
- 1 thumb sized piece fresh ginger, sliced
- 100g miso paste (white or red miso)
- 3-4 chicken breasts, grilled and sliced
- 2-3 spring onions, thinly sliced
- 200g sweetcorn
- Roasted Sesame seeds
- Some cooked spinach or nori seaweed
- 2 eggs, hard boiled
- 2-3 servings of ramen noodles or 300g Chinese style noodles
- In a large pot, put all the stocks, ginger slices and miso paste and bring to the boil. Leave it on a slow simmer for about 20 minutes.
- Cook the noodles as per packet directions, drain and cool down by rinsing under a cold water tap. Set aside.
- Prepare two or three large soup bowls. Ladle the broth into the bowls until two-thirds full. Drop 100g of cooked noodles in one side of the broth. On the noodles place the sliced chicken breast, add the sweetcorn, chopped spring onions, eggs, sesame seeds and spinach as shown in the picture above.
- Serve hot!!
Enjoy!!
