Ingredients
Ramen Noodles
- 1 serving Yamachan Shoyu Ramen or Tokyo Shoyu Ramen Noodles
- At least 6¼ cups or 1.5L of Water
Soup
- 1 serving Yamachan Shoyu Ramen or Tokyo Shoyu Ramen Soup Base
- 1 1/4 cups or 300 ml Hot Water
Toppings
- 3 Garlic Clove (sliced)
- 1/2 cup Chive (cut to 3 cm or 1” slices)
- 1 cup Bean Sprouts
- 50 g Pork (minced)
- 1 tsp Chili Paste
- 1 tbsp Cooking Oil
- 1 tsp Vinegar
- 1 tsp Sesame Oil
Instructions
1) Heat a pot over medium heat and coat it with cooking oil. Saute sliced garlic until the aroma comes out, and add chili paste and roast. Add minced pork and cook halfway. Add cut chives and quickly stir fry. Drop the bean sprouts into the pan and stir fry to check all the ingredients are cooked. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to check the flavor. Add 350 ml water and the soup base, and wait until it boils.
2) Cook the noodles.
3) Go back to your soup pot. When it started boiling, add vinegar and sesame oil. Your soup is ready!
4) Pour only soup into a ramen bowl, and then add cooked noodles after. If you put the noodles in an empty bowl, the oil in the soup does not adhere to the noodles evenly. Top with other ingredients that you cooked with the soup last.
