Description

A rich and comforting ramen bowl featuring tender beef simmered in a spicy, savory broth with chewy noodles, a jammy soft-boiled egg, and fresh green onions—perfectly satisfying for cold days or late-night cravings.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1/4 pound beef strips (optional)
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste (e.g. gochujang or sambal oelek)
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 packs ramen noodles (discard seasoning packets)
  • 2 soft-boiled eggs, halved
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • Optional: sesame seeds, chili oil for drizzling

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add onions, garlic, and ginger and sauté for 2–3 minutes until fragrant.
  2. Add ground beef and optional beef strips. Cook until browned and cooked through.
  3. Stir in chili paste, then add beef broth, soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, cook ramen noodles in a separate pot according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  5. Assemble bowls by placing noodles in the center. Ladle spicy beef broth and beef over the noodles.
  6. Top with halved soft-boiled eggs, chopped green onions, and additional chili oil or sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

  • Use gochujang for a deeper Korean flavor or sambal oelek for more direct heat.
  • Adjust chili paste to your preferred spice level.
  • Ramen eggs can be marinated in soy sauce ahead of time for added flavor.
