Kick off your weeknight dinner with this umami-packed bowl. Spicy miso ramen delivers a rich, savory broth with a gentle heat that warms you from the inside out. It’s a deeply satisfying meal that comes together faster than you’d think.
Serving: 2 | Pre Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
For the Broth and Tare:
– 4 cups chicken broth
– 2 tbsp white miso paste
– 1 tbsp soy sauce
– 1 tsp chili oil
– 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
– 1 garlic clove, minced
For the Noodles and Toppings:
– 6 oz fresh ramen noodles
– 2 large eggs
– 4 oz sliced pork belly
– 1 cup sliced shiitake mushrooms
– 2 green onions, thinly sliced
– 1 sheet nori, cut into strips
Instructions
1. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Carefully add the eggs with a slotted spoon. Boil for 7 minutes for a soft-boiled yolk. 2. Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water using the slotted spoon. Let cool for 5 minutes, then peel and halve them. Tip: The ice bath stops the cooking and makes peeling easier. 3. In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, miso paste, soy sauce, chili oil, ginger, and minced garlic. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low. Simmer for 15 minutes. 4. While the broth simmers, cook the pork belly in a skillet over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes until browned and crispy. Transfer to a plate. 5. In the same skillet, sauté the sliced shiitake mushrooms over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until tender. 6. Cook the ramen noodles in the pot of boiling water according to package directions, usually 3-4 minutes. Drain immediately. Tip: Avoid overcooking the noodles as they will soften further in the hot broth. 7. Divide the cooked noodles between two large bowls. Ladle the hot broth over the noodles. 8. Arrange the halved soft-boiled eggs, crispy pork belly, sautéed mushrooms, sliced green onions, and nori strips on top of each bowl. Tip: For extra flavor, lightly toast the nori strips with a kitchen torch for 10 seconds before adding. 9. Serve immediately.
Warm, chewy noodles soak up the complex, savory broth, while the soft-boiled egg adds a creamy contrast. The crispy pork belly and toasted nori provide satisfying crunch. For a fun twist, top with a sprinkle of sesame seeds or a drizzle of extra chili oil.

5. While broth simmers, bring a separate small saucepan of water to a gentle simmer (180°F) for poaching eggs. Add 1 tablespoon white vinegar.
6. Crack 1 egg into a small bowl. Gently slide the egg into the simmering water. Repeat with the second egg.
7. Poach eggs for 3 minutes for a runny yolk, or 4 minutes for a firmer yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
8. Add 6 ounces ramen noodles to the broth pot. Cook for 4 minutes, or until noodles are tender but still firm.
9. Divide noodles and broth between two bowls.
10. Top each bowl with one poached egg and garnish with sliced green onions.
Keep the broth at a steady simmer to concentrate flavors without boiling them off. The poached eggs should be cooked just until the whites are set for a perfect runny center.

For a spicy twist, add a drizzle of chili oil just before serving.
