Ingredients
  

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil for sautéing
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger minced
  • 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 package (3 ounces) ramen noodles discard the seasoning packet
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 2 large eggs poached
  • to taste chopped scallions for garnish

Equipment

  • Large saucepan
  • Slotted spoon
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Measuring spoons

Method
 

  1. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to let them burn!
  2. Pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth and soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing the flavors to meld together for about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the ramen noodles directly into the simmering broth. Cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-4 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Once the noodles are nearly done, stir in the fresh spinach. It will wilt quickly, adding vibrant color and nutrition to your Breakfast Ramen.
  5. In a separate pot, bring water to a gentle simmer. Crack the eggs into the simmering water and poach for about 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set, and the yolks remain runny.
  6. Ladle the ramen and broth into bowls. Gently place a poached egg on top of each serving. Finish with a sprinkle of chopped scallions for brightness and crunch.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Keep broth and noodles separate to prevent sogginess.
  • Add seasonal vegetables for a twist!
