Coconut Curry Ramen


  • Author: Martha
  • Total Time: 30 min.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Ramen Broth:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian version)
  • 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk (full-fat for the best creaminess)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon miso paste (optional but adds depth)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice (optional, for extra brightness)

For the Ramen:

  • 4 servings of ramen noodles (fresh or instant)
  • 2 boiled eggs (optional but highly recommended)
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup spinach (or other leafy greens like bok choy)
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1 green onion, sliced for garnish
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Red chili flakes or Sriracha, to taste (optional for added spice)

Instructions

Make the Broth

  1. Sauté Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  2. Add Spices: Stir in the curry powder and ground ginger, and cook for another 30 seconds to bring out the spices’ flavors.
  3. Add Liquid Ingredients: Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, coconut milk, soy sauce, and miso paste (if using). Stir well to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  4. Simmer: Let the broth simmer for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to develop. You can adjust the seasoning by adding more soy sauce or curry powder to taste.

Cook the Noodles and Vegetables

  1. Cook the Ramen: In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Veggies: In the same pot as the broth, add the sliced mushrooms, spinach, shredded carrots, and corn. Simmer for another 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
  3. Prepare the Eggs: If adding boiled eggs, cook them to your preferred doneness. Soft-boiled eggs (with runny yolks) are especially delicious in ramen! Peel and halve them once they’re ready.

Assemble the Ramen

  1. Add the Noodles: Divide the cooked ramen noodles between four bowls. Pour the hot coconut curry broth and veggies over the noodles.
  2. Top with Toppings: Add the boiled egg halves, garnish with sliced green onions, cilantro, and a sprinkle of red chili flakes or Sriracha for extra spice.
