Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- Jjajang ramen 1 pack
- Pork belly 80g
- Green onion 1/3 bunch
- Green chili pepper 1 piece
- Cooking oil 1 tablespoon
- Soy sauce 1 teaspoon
- Red pepper powder 1 teaspoon
- Chili oil 1 tablespoon
- Water 400ml
Recipe 🍳
- Slice the pork belly into thin, long strips. Finely chop the green onion and green chili pepper.
- Heat cooking oil in a pan and sauté the pork belly until golden and tender.
- Once the pork is cooked, add the green onion and green chili pepper, stir-frying briefly. Press 1 teaspoon of soy sauce along the edge of the pan to create a smoky aroma.
- Add 1 teaspoon of red pepper powder and 1 tablespoon of chili oil, continuing to stir-fry until the spicy pork topping is fully developed. Set aside separately.
- In a pot, combine 400ml of water and the solid soup base. Bring to a boil, but start simmering early to extract broth-like depth.
- Once boiling, add the noodles and stir continuously until the broth thickens and reduces slightly.
- When most of the liquid has evaporated, turn off the heat and mix in the powdered soup and oily soup base, ensuring the noodles are thoroughly coated with a rich sauce.
- Transfer the finished ramen to a serving bowl and top generously with the pre-cooked spicy pork topping to finish.
- Prepare the pork and vegetables by slicing and chopping.
- Sauté the pork in a pan, then add green onion, green chili pepper, and soy sauce to develop a smoky flavor.
- Add red pepper powder and chili oil to complete the spicy pork topping.
- Combine 400ml of water, solid soup base, and noodles in a pot, and simmer without discarding the water.
- Turn off the heat and mix in the powdered and oily soup bases to thicken the sauce.
- Serve in a bowl and garnish with the prepared spicy pork topping.
Cooking tips 💡
- Since no water is discarded and the broth is reduced slowly, the starch remains intact, allowing the sauce to cling richly to the noodles.
- Always turn off the heat before mixing in the powdered soup base to prevent burning and ensure a moist, glossy finish.
