If you’re looking for more simple ramen recipes, I suggest giving my Vegan Ramen a try! This Ramen Stir Fry is also delicious + this Zucchini Noodle Ramen recipe!
Ingredients you’ll need:
- Ramen noodles- you can use any kind you’d like including the cheap packets of ramen (just discard the seasoning packet). You can use rice noodles as preferred for a gluten-free soup.
- Ginger paste- you can also use fresh ginger but I really like the paste for ease.
- Garlic paste – you can also use fresh garlic cloves but I really like the paste for ease.
- Peanut butter- I like a good natural creamy peanut butter for this. Any other nut/ seed butter would also work. Even tahini would be delicious!
- Miso paste
- Veggie broth- or any broth/ stock that you prefer.
- Coconut milk
- Soy sauce- this helps add a lot of flavor
- Vegetables for serving- you can use whatever veggies you’d like but I love bok choy, carrots, mushrooms, and carrots with mine. Broccoli and red peppers would also be lovely with this.
- Optional for serving: sesame seeds, lime juice, tofu, chili oil.
This recipe is SUPER easy to make and comes together in just about 20 minutes. Let’s go over it!
How to make this recipe
Start out by making the broth. It’s a simple mix of sesame oil, ginger, garlic, peanut butter, miso, broth, soy sauce, and coconut milk.
Meanwhile, cook your ramen noodles (and bok choy if using). Once done, drain and set aside.
To serve the ramen, simple divide the broth and the noodles evenly among 2 big bowls and top with desired toppings!
Can I cook the noodles in the broth?
I first tested this recipe where I cooked the noodles IN the broth and it tastes delicious. However, the noodles soak up a LOT of the liquid and I don’t personally prefer that.
If you’d like to cook your noodles in the broth, I suggest adding up to 1 cup of extra water/ broth to offset how much is soaked up by the noodles while they cook.
