(w/ guest chef Storm @whatstormeats)
Prep time: 5 mins
Cooking time: 25 mins
Ingredients:
Ramen base
*1.5 litres of Vegetable stock or dashi
*10g dried mushrooms
*3 tbsp of miso paste
*3 tbsp of soy sauce
*1 garlic clove crushed
*1 thumb of chilli crushed
*1 whole spring onion chopped
*1 tsp of sesame paste (or tahini)
+ 2 portions of noodles
Toppings
*1 tbsp of sesame oil
*10g of salted butter
*A splash of soy
Optional: shichimi togarashi (Japanese seven spice) (Replace with a little white sesame and chilli flakes)
*2 eggs
Recipe:
1) Start by making the ramen stock. Add the stock, garlic, chilli and chopped whole spring onion and bring to a rolling boil.
2) Strip the corn kernels if you are using unhusked corn and n a separate pan, melt the butter with sesame oil, and soy sauce. If you like a little spice, add some shichimi togarashi or a pinch of chilli flakes. Stir in the fresh the stripped corn until just cooked through. Set aside.
3) Finely slice your spring onions and set aside.
4) Prepare your eggs by boiling a pan of water to a rolling boil. Once simmering, add your eggs carefully into the water. Boil for approximately 6-7 minutes depending on how soft you like the eggs – 6.5 minutes is perfect.
5) Once boiled, place into cold water until they have cooled. Peel and place in a separate bowl.
6) After about 15-20 mins, remove the vegetables from the broth and add the miso, sesame paste and soy sauce. Bring to the boil again until your ramen stock turns cloudy and all the miso is incorporated. Keep on a simmer.
7) Cook your noodles of choice according to instructions (buckwheat, udon, rice or ramen all work really well!).
8) Build your ramen by adding cooked noodles, followed by the piping hot broth and finally all your toppings. Slice your eggs in half and place on top of the noodles.
9) Finish with spring onions, chilli oil and a sprinkling of seaweed flakes.
