For the Spicy Miso Tare:

  • 3 tbsp red miso paste  (sub half white and half red miso paste or just white for milder flavour)
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp mentsuyu sub soy sauce
  • 2 tsp garlic
  • 2 tsp ginger
  • 1 tsp doubanjiang
  • 1 tsp rayu chilli oil
  • 1 tbsp white sesame seeds (toasted and ground)

For the Miso Ramen Toppings – your choice of:

  • bamboo shoots or menma (fermented bamboo shoots)
  • beni shoga / red pickled ginger
  • spring onion
  • soft boiled eggs or ramen eggs
  • black pepper
  • nori sheets / seaweed sheets
  • bean sprouts
  • chashu pork slices

Instructions
 

  • Cook ramen noodles according to packet directions. Drain.

For the Miso Tare:

  • In a small dish, add the red miso paste, garlic, ginger, mentsuyu, doubanjiang, sugar, rayu chilli oil and toasted ground white sesame seeds. Mix until well combined.

For the Pork:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Place in the pork mince and ginger and cook for around 3 minutes until browned. Add in the miso tare and mix through.
  • Pour in 1 cup of the chicken stock and stir until the tare softens into a soup base. Pour in the remaining chicken stock and bring to the boil. Stir occasionally and cook for a further minute or two. Switch off the heat.

To Assemble:

  • Portion out the cooked ramen noodles into serving bowls. Ladle over with spicy miso ramen broth, until noodles are almost covered.
  • Top with ramen toppings of your choice (we love eggs, butter, corn, spring onion, beni shoga and nori sheets) and serve immediately.
