Ingredients
Scale
- 200g fresh ramen noodles
- 1 block (300g) firm tofu
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp miso paste (white or red)
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Press the tofu to remove excess moisture by wrapping it in a clean kitchen towel and placing something heavy on top for about 15 minutes. Cut into cubes afterward.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tbsp of oil. Once hot, place the tofu cubes in the skillet and fry until golden brown on all sides, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- In another pot, bring water to a boil and cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions (around three minutes for fresh noodles).
- In a large saucepan, combine vegetable broth, miso paste, soy sauce, and any desired spices (such as chili flakes). Simmer over medium heat for about five minutes until well mixed.
- Drain the cooked noodles and add them directly into the broth. Stir gently to ensure they soak up all the flavors.
- Ladle your spicy miso ramen into bowls and top with crispy tofu, chopped green onions, and toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy immediately while hot!
