This is my favorite way to make homemade ramen. It's simple, flavorful and done in under 30 minutes. It's a quick fix for your take-out cravings.

Ingredients

Units
  • 2 Tablespoons sesame oil
  • 5 garlic cloves, finely minced or grated
  • 1 and 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 2 (32 ounce) low sodium chicken broth
  • 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 packet chinese noodles
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, like a dutch oven, over medium heat, add the sesame oil, half the garlic cloves, and mushrooms. Let the it cook for about 3 minutes.
  2. Add the chicken broth, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and bring it up to a boil. Once boiling, add the noodles and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add salt, pepper and red pepper flakes to taste.

Notes

  1. Make Ahead Instructions: The ramen can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  2. Noodles: Any type of noodles work (soba, Chinese noodles, etc.) This is my favorite brand to use.
  3. Mushrooms: You can omit, though I'd recommend adding peppers and onions.
  4. Chicken Broth: To make this vegetarian or vegan, you can use vegetable broth.
