Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 200 g fresh ramen noodles
  • 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp mirin
  • 1 piece kombu
  • 300 g chicken
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 slices chashu pork
  • 2 scallions
  • 2 sheets nori

Method
 

  1. Make the tare: warm soy sauce and mirin together; divide between two bowls.
  2. Simmer chicken and kombu in water 30 minutes for a quick broth; strain.
  3. Soft-boil eggs 6.5 minutes, peel, and marinate in a little soy + mirin.
  4. Cook the noodles separately per package; drain well.
  5. Add noodles to the tare, pour over hot broth, and top with egg, chashu, scallions and nori.

Notes

Marinate the eggs ahead for the best jammy yolk.
