Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp. sesame oil
- 3 tsp. grated ginger
- 4 tsp. grated garlic
- 4 c. broth (I used chicken, but vegetable would also work)
- 4 c. water
- 1 oz. dried shiitake mushrooms
- 2 packages instant ramen (noodles only!)
- 1/2 c. chopped scallions or chives
- 2 c. chopped kale
- 1 c. shredded carrots
- Sriracha to taste
- crunchy golden panko crumbs for topping (see FAQs)
Directions
-
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium low heat. Add the garlic and ginger; stir fry for 2 minutes or until soft and fragrant.
-
Add the broth and the water. Bring to a simmer; add the mushrooms and simmer for 10 minutes or until the mushrooms have softened and the broth is flavorful.
-
Add the instant noodles to the hot liquid and simmer for an additional 5 minutes or until the noodles have softened. Add the scallions and stir to combine.
-
Remove from heat, stir in the kale and carrots, and top with crunchy panko crumbs (see notes) and a soft-boiled egg (optional). Season with chili oil, hot sauce, sesame oil, and/or soy sauce and salt to taste.
