Ingredients

  • 1 packet ramen noodles

  • 4 eggs

  • Green part of spring onion (for garnish), chopped

  • Ramen Broth
  • 4 cups vegetable stock, fish stock or water

  • 1 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon of oil

  • 3 cloves of garlic, chopped

  • White part of spring onion, chopped

  • 1 celery stalk, chopped

  • 2 teaspoons ginger powder

  • 1 teaspoon paprika powder

  • 1 teaspoon white pepper powder

  • Salt to taste

  • Caramelised Vegetables
  • 4-5 Carrots sliced into thick sticks

  • 1/4 of a bigger cauliflower separated into florets

  • 2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce

  • 1 Tablesponn Honey

Directions

  • Ramen Noodles
  • In a separate saucepan, cook ramen noodles al dente according to the packet instructions.
  • When cooked, drain and set aside.
  • Boiled Eggs
  • Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil over medium heat. Once the water has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and allow the eggs to simmer for:
  • Soft-cooked eggs – 5-6 minutes
  • Medium-cooked eggs – 9-10 minutes
  • Remove the eggs from the pan and place them in a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process. When the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them in a water bath and set aside.
  • Steamed Vegetables
  • Place a steamer basket in a pot filled with a couple of inches of water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
  • Add the carrots and cauliflower florets to the steamer basket. Cover the pot and steam for 10-12 minutes or until tender.
  • In a bowl, whisk together honey and soy sauce. Pour the mixture over the steamed vegetables and toss to coat evenly. Set aside to marinate.
  • Make the Ramen Broth
  • In a large saucepan or deep frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, garlic, and white part of the spring onion and sauté until soft.
  • Add chopped celery and cook until soft. Pour in the vegetable stock (fish stock is a better option). Add enough liquid to cover the vegetables. For extra flavor, add 1/2 cup of water mixed with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Cook for a few minutes until fragrant.
  • Add the ginger powder, paprika powder, white pepper powder, and salt. Simmer for a few minutes to infuse the flavors.
  • Caramelized Steamed Veggies
  • In a hot pan, add a little bit of oil. Over medium heat, add the marinated vegetables. Stir occasionally until the liquid is evaporated and you are left with sticky and delicious caramelized veggies.
  • Assemble the Ramen Bowls
  • Divide the cooked ramen noodles into serving bowls. Pour the flavorful broth over the noodles.
  • Top with steamed vegetables, boiled eggs (halved), and chopped spring onions.
  • Garnish with extra soy sauce or chili flakes if desired.
  • Enjoy your comforting and nutritious Ramen with boiled eggs and steamed vegetables!
