Instructions:

1. Prepare Vegetables: Start by preparing the vegetables. Julienne or thinly slice the carrots, slice the mushrooms, and roughly chop the spinach.
2. Cook the Eggs: Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, carefully add the eggs and cook for 7-8 minutes for medium-boiled eggs, or 10-12 minutes for hard-boiled eggs. Once cooked, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool. Peel and slice them in half.
3. Prepare the Broth: In a large pot, combine the 3 cups of water and 1.5 tablespoons of vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
4. Add Miso and Ginger: Stir in the 1.5 teaspoons of miso and 1.5 teaspoons of grated ginger until fully dissolved in the broth.
5. Cook Vegetables and Noodles:
- Add the julienned carrots and sliced mushrooms to the pot. Let them cook for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
- Add the dried egg noodles to the pot and cook according to the package instructions, usually about 5-7 minutes or until the noodles are tender.
- During the last minute of cooking, stir in the chopped spinach to wilt it.
6. Add Flavor: Stir in the 3 tablespoons of finely chopped onion to the pot and mix well.
7. Serve: Ladle the hot broth, vegetables, and noodles into serving bowls. Place the halved boiled eggs on top of each bowl.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle each bowl with 3/4 teaspoon of sesame seeds for an extra touch of flavor and texture.
9. Enjoy: Serve the spicy ramen hot and enjoy!

Spicy ramen cup of noodles FAQ:

How long should the eggs be boiled for soft-boiled vs hard-boiled?

For soft-boiled eggs, cook them for 7-8 minutes. For hard-boiled eggs, cook for 10-12 minutes. After boiling, transfer them to ice water to cool before peeling.

What type of vegetables can I use in this recipe?

Besides carrots, mushrooms, and spinach, you can add other vegetables like bell peppers, bok choy, or green onions according to your preference.

How do I store leftovers of this ramen?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For best texture, store noodles separately from the broth and reheat before serving.

Can I substitute vegetable broth with chicken or beef broth?

Yes, you can substitute vegetable broth with chicken or beef broth for a different flavor profile, but it will alter the dish's vegetarian quality.

What is the recommended cooking time for egg noodles?

Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions, usually about 5-7 minutes, until they are tender.

Tips:

- To intensify the flavor, consider adding a splash of soy sauce or a dash of hot sauce to your broth.

- For a richer broth, you can use chicken broth instead of vegetable broth, if not restricted by dietary preferences.

- Adjust the level of spiciness by varying the amount of ginger or by adding crushed red pepper flakes.

- To ensure your egg is perfectly cooked, you can poach it separately and add it to the ramen just before serving.

- Add a few strips of nori (seaweed) or a sprinkle of chopped green onions for extra garnish and flavor.
