Pork Ramen in a Shoyu-Style Broth Elevated Dinners, Impressively Easy

Nothing says comfort quite like homemade ramen, that soul-stirring combination of umami-rich broth, tender meat and veggies, and a tangle of chewy noodles. In this spin, you’ll build a sumptuous bowl of soy-infused ramen broth packed with hearty ground pork plus bok choy, napa cabbage, and spinach for a big dose of wholesome greens. Add the noodles, and top with homemade chili-garlic oil and fried onions for crispy contrast. But what’s the very best part (besides the whole thing?) You’ll pull it all off in a lightning-fast 15 minutes, so get those chopsticks ready, cause soup’s on!

Instructions

4 steps
  1. 1

    Wash and dry produce.

    Trim and slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince or grate garlic.

    Drizzle oil in a hot large pot. Add pork* and scallion whites; season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned, 2 minutes (it will finish cooking in Step 3).

  2. 2

    To pot with pork mixture, add 31⁄2 cups water, chicken stock concentrates, pork ramen stock concentrates, and half the soy sauce (7 cups water and all the soy sauce for 4); cover and bring to a simmer.

    Meanwhile, in a small microwave- safe bowl, mix sesame seeds, garlic, half the sesame oil (all for 4), a drizzle of oil, a big pinch of salt, and as many chili flakes as you like. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until fragrant, 30 seconds.

  3. 3

    Once broth is simmering, reduce heat under pot to medium. Add noodles, bok choy and napa cabbage, and spinach; simmer, stirring, until noodles are tender and pork is cooked through, 2 minutes.

    Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

  4. 4

    Divide ramen between large soup bowls. Stir in as much chili garlic oil as you like.

    Top with scallion greens and a few crispy onions. Serve. TIP: Don’t add all the onions just yet! Add them as you eat to keep them nice and crispy.

    Ground Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
