Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- 1 spicy cup noodle
- 1/2 package soft tofu
- 1/2 green onion
- 1 tbsp gochugaru
- A little enoki mushroom
- 1/4 onion
- 1 egg
Recipe 🍳
- Leaving the noodles in the cup noodle container, remove the powdered soup and dehydrated flake sachets. Then fill with water to just below the indicated line and set aside.
- Heat oil in an earthenware pot or small saucepan, add the chopped green onion, and sauté until the scallion oil fragrance rises.
- When the green onion turns golden, add 1 tbsp gochugaru and quickly stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds to make chili oil without burning.
- Pour in the measured water from the cup noodle container, then add all the powdered soup and dehydrated flakes.
- Add the noodles, enoki mushrooms torn into bite-sized pieces, sliced onion, and 1/2 package of soft tofu. Break the tofu into large chunks with a spoon.
- When the stew comes to a rolling boil, crack in 1 egg, garnish with green onion, and continue boiling for about 3 minutes until the egg is cooked to your liking.
- Prepare the cup noodle container with water, and in an earthenware pot, sauté green onion to make scallion oil.
- Add gochugaru to make chili oil, then add the prepared water, cup noodle soup, and noodles.
- Add mushrooms, onion, soft tofu, and egg, and bring to a boil to finish.
Cooking tips 💡
- When stir-frying gochugaru, if the heat is too high it can burn easily and turn bitter, so quickly cook over medium-low heat.
- At the end, taste the broth and if it's too salty, add water; if bland, add a little fish sauce or soup soy sauce to adjust.
- If you want to shorten the cooking process, you can skip the step of stir-frying green onion and gochugaru and just add water directly to boil.
