Easy Ramen

What you need to do

• Place the garlic with ¼ teaspoon of salt onto a chopping board, and using the edge of a knife, mash together into a paste. Set aside.
• Heat one tablespoon of the sesame oil in a large pot over a medium heat. Add the pork and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt and cook for 5-7 minutes. Transfer the pork to a plate.
• Add the remaining one teaspoon of sesame oil to the same pot and cook the carrots, the white parts of the green onion and half of the green parts of the green onion. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until the carrots are tender.
• Push the vegetables aside to clear a space in the centre of the pot. Add the ginger, chilli garlic sauce and reserved garlic paste and cook for 30 seconds, taking care not to burn the garlic.
• Next, stir in the pork and any pork juices, then add the chicken broth. Increase the heat to high and bring just to a boil. Add the miso and butter and stir until the miso is fully dissolved. Cover the pot and keep warm over low heat until ready to serve.
• Cook the noodles according to the instructions on the packaging and prepare all the other topping ingredients.
• To serve: Divide the noodles and pork between 4 bowls. Ladle the hot broth over the top. Top with egg halves, the remaining green onion, and the remaining toppings.

  Serve hot.
