Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 10-12 frozen dumplings your choice of filling
  • 2 bricks instant ramen noodles seasoning packets discarded
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce low sodium
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 soft-boiled eggs for serving
  • 2 green onions thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • chili oil to taste

Equipment

  • 1 Medium Pot
  • 1 Knife and Cutting Board

Method
 

  1. In a medium pot, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger.
  2. Gently add the frozen dumplings to the broth. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until they float and are fully cooked through.
  3. Add the ramen noodle bricks to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes, using a fork to gently separate the noodles as they soften.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the soy sauce and sesame oil. Taste and adjust if needed.
  5. Divide the noodles, dumplings, and broth between two bowls. Top with a soft-boiled egg, sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of chili oil, if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Pro Tip: For an even richer broth, add a tablespoon of miso paste along with the soy sauce.
Storage: Store leftover ramen and broth separately in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The noodles will get soggy if stored in the liquid.
