Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • A little cooking oil
  • A little minced green onion
  • A little minced garlic
  • Gochugaru to taste
  • Soy sauce to taste (for seasoning and sauce)
  • Store-bought beef bone broth to taste
  • 1 tbsp spicy ramen broth powder
  • Shabu-shabu beef and vegetables (napa cabbage, bok choy, mushrooms, etc.) to taste
  • 1 serving ramen noodles
  • A little yuzu marmalade
  • A little lemon juice
  • A little minced Cheongyang chili pepper

Recipe 🍳

  1. Lightly oil a heated pan and stir-fry a generous amount of minced green onion and garlic until the fragrant aroma is evenly infused into the oil.
  2. When the green onions turn golden brown, reduce the heat to low, add gochugaru and soy sauce, and stir-fry quickly for just 10 seconds to create the special gochujang.
  3. In a hot pot, mix and pour in a 7:3 ratio of clean anchovy broth (made by boiling broth cubes) and deep-flavored store-bought beef bone broth.
  4. Add 1 tablespoon of spicy ramen broth powder to the mixed broth to explode the savory flavor, and gently dissolve the freshly stir-fried gochujang to complete the spicy shabu-shabu broth.
  5. Generously arrange the prepared shabu-shabu beef and fresh vegetables like napa cabbage and mushrooms in the pot and cook while boiling.
  6. While the ingredients are boiling, mix water, soy sauce, sweet yuzu marmalade, lemon juice, minced garlic, and minced Cheongyang chili pepper in a small bowl to make the zesty yuzu-ponzu sauce.
  7. Dip the well-cooked meat and vegetables generously into the special sauce, and when there's a little broth left, add the ramen noodles and boil to finish.
  1. Stir-fry minced green onion and garlic, then add gochugaru and soy sauce and stir-fry for just 10 seconds to make the hot pot gochujang.
  2. Mix anchovy broth and beef bone broth in a 7:3 ratio, add 1 tablespoon of ramen broth powder and gochujang, and boil the broth.
  3. Boil vegetables and meat, dip in ponzu sauce made with yuzu marmalade and lemon juice, and then boil ramen noodles in the remaining broth.

Cooking tips 💡

  • The gochujang, stir-fried in leek oil, masks the unique instant flavor of the ramen broth powder, making it taste like a deep, restaurant-quality hot pot dish rather than ramen broth.
  • Using 100% beef bone broth can make the soup a bit too thick. Mixing in 70% anchovy broth or clear vegetable broth balances the flavor for a refreshing and clean taste.
