Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- 1 pack spicy ramen (Neoguri recommended)
- 1 handful thin-sliced pork belly
- 1 handful soybean sprouts (or mung bean sprouts)
- 1/4 onion
- 1/2 green onion
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
- 1 tbsp gochugaru
- 550ml water
- 1 tbsp anchovy fish sauce
- 1 egg
- a dash of black pepper
Recipe 🍳
- Slice the onion and roughly chop both the white and green parts of the green onion.
- Add cooking oil to a pan along with the chopped green onion, onion, and thin-sliced pork belly.
- Stir-fry over high heat until the vegetables wilt and the pork belly turns white.
- Once well stir-fried, reduce heat to low, add gochugaru, and quickly stir-fry to release spicy chili oil.
- Pour in 550ml water, add ramen seasoning powder, vegetable flake packet, dashima (kelp), and the secret ingredient anchovy fish sauce, then bring to a boil.
- When the broth boils, add the ramen noodles and soybean sprouts, and cook until the noodles are done.
- When the noodles are cooked al dente, remove only the noodles and sprouts to a bowl first to prevent the noodles from getting soggy.
- Crack an egg into the remaining broth, gently stir, bring to a brief boil, then pour the broth over the noodles and sprinkle black pepper to finish.
- Stir-fry green onion, onion, and thin-sliced pork belly over high heat until savory.
- Reduce heat to low, stir-fry gochugaru to make chili oil, then add water, ramen seasoning, and anchovy fish sauce and bring to a boil.
- Add noodles and soybean sprouts, cook, then remove the noodles; crack an egg into the broth, boil briefly, and pour over the noodles.
Cooking tips 💡
- After adding gochugaru, it can burn easily, so be sure to reduce heat to low when stir-frying to avoid a burnt taste.
- Instead of anchovy fish sauce, you can use the same amount of sand lance fish sauce, tuna extract, or oyster sauce to achieve rich umami.
- Removing the noodles before stirring in the egg prevents the noodles from getting soggy and helps finish the broth cleanly.
