Recipe

Cooking tips

  • You can substitute knife-cut noodles with Chinese-style udon, kalguksu, or thin wheat noodles based on preference or availability.
  • Chusan sauce has a strong numbing effect, so start with a small amount—about half a tablespoon—and adjust to taste.
  • For a more authentic ma la experience, skip the sugar entirely if you want to fully enjoy the intense numbing heat.
  • For extra richness, stir-fry mushrooms or other vegetables with the pork before adding the broth.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make restaurant-quality spicy numbing ramen at home.
  • People who love the chewy texture of knife-cut noodles combined with a bold, spicy, and rich broth.
  • Anyone seeking a simple yet satisfying one-bowl meal using store-bought ma la sauce.
