A quick and comforting one-pot ramen recipe featuring spicy broth, tender noodles, and a silky soft boiled egg, perfect for last-minute meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package ramen noodles (about 3 oz / 85 g), instant or fresh
  • 1 or 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 2 stalks scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons chili paste or sauce (e.g., sambal oelek or gochujang)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 2 cups vegetable broth or water (16 fl oz / 480 ml)
  • Optional toppings: toasted sesame seeds, nori strips, lime wedge

Instructions

  1. Mince the garlic, grate the ginger, and slice the scallions thinly. Set aside.
  2. Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Carefully add the eggs and boil for exactly 6 minutes for soft, jammy yolks. Remove eggs and place in ice water to stop cooking. Peel when cool enough to handle.
  3. In a medium pot, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
  4. Stir in chili paste and soy sauce, cooking for another 30 seconds to combine flavors.
  5. Pour in vegetable broth or water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
  6. Add ramen noodles to the simmering broth. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender but still slightly firm.
  7. Stir in most of the sliced scallions, reserving some for garnish.
  8. Ladle noodles and broth into bowls. Halve the soft boiled eggs and place on top. Garnish with reserved scallions, toasted sesame seeds, and nori strips if desired.

Notes

Do not overcook garlic to avoid bitterness. Boil eggs for exactly 6 minutes for perfect soft yolks. Adjust chili paste amount to taste. Taste broth as you go and add water or broth if too salty. For gluten-free, use tamari and gluten-free noodles. For vegan, omit egg or substitute with tofu cubes.
