Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • jajang ramen 1 pack
  • medium shrimp 3 pieces
  • squid 2 pieces
  • wood ear mushroom a little
  • bamboo shoot a little
  • shiitake mushroom 1 piece
  • button mushroom 1/4 piece
  • porcini mushroom a little
  • onion 1/2 piece
  • minced garlic 1 tablespoon
  • light soy sauce 1 teaspoon
  • fine red chili powder 1 tablespoon
  • water 3 cups
  • oyster sauce 1/2 teaspoon
  • salt a little
  • black pepper a little

Recipe 🍳

  1. Prepare the shrimp whole, and slice squid, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and onion into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Heat oil in a pan, add minced garlic and onion, and sauté slowly until the garlic aroma fills the air.
  3. Once the garlic scent rises, add 1 teaspoon of light soy sauce to enhance the fragrance, then sprinkle in the ramen soup base.
  4. Add the prepared vegetables and mushrooms to the pan and stir-fry together.
  5. To boost color and spiciness, add 1 tablespoon of fine red chili powder and quickly stir-fry without burning to develop a smoky flavor.
  6. Do not pour all the water at once—add it in three portions gradually while simmering, allowing the ingredients to reduce and deepen their flavor.
  7. When the broth begins to boil, add the shrimp and squid and cook until done.
  8. Add the ramen noodles and cook while stirring. Season with 1/2 teaspoon oyster sauce, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Adjust final seasoning, then serve in bowls once the noodles are cooked.
  1. Prepare seafood, mushrooms, and vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Sauté garlic and onion in a pan, then add soy sauce and ramen soup base to build aroma.
  3. Add mushrooms and chili powder, stir-fry briefly, then add water in three batches while simmering.
  4. Once the broth is well extracted, add seafood and ramen noodles, season with oyster sauce, salt, and pepper, and finish cooking.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Avoid using coarse red chili powder as it can make the broth cloudy; use finely ground fine red chili powder for a cleaner appearance.
  • Adding water in three separate portions while gently simmering allows the rich flavors of seafood and mushrooms to fully infuse into the broth.
