Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1Add water to the pot
    Water being poured into an empty grey cooking pot on a stovetop.

    Begin by pouring water into your cooking pot, which will serve as the base for the miso ramen broth.

    Tip: Using filtered water can improve the overall taste of your broth.
  2. 2Create the creamy base
    Milk being poured into the pot, mixing with the water.

    Combine water and milk in your cooking pot. The milk adds body and a luxurious, creamy texture to the broth that pairs perfectly with the savory miso.

    Tip: Adding milk gives the soup a smoother, more decadent texture.
  3. 3Add protein and vegetables
    A variety of ingredients including ham, prawns, mushrooms, and corn being added to the milky broth.

    Gently place the fish cake, ham slices, prawn, fish roe pouch, crab stick, mushroom, carrot, and sweet corn kernels into the liquid. Cooking them together infuses the broth with their flavors.

    Tip: Make sure all ingredients are sliced evenly for consistent cooking.
  4. 4Season with miso
    A spoonful of miso paste being stirred into the boiling, creamy broth.

    Once the liquid is simmering, add the miso paste. Use a ladle or whisk to ensure it is completely dissolved, which prevents clumps and ensures a consistent flavor throughout.

    Tip: Ensure the miso paste is fully dissolved to avoid clumps in your soup.
  5. 5Cook the ramen noodles

    Tip: Dont overcook the noodles; they should still have a slight bite.
