I loved this recipe - the only reason I did not give it five stars was the inconsistency with the ingredient list. The list names chili oil, but not sesame oil. The directions include the use of sesame oil, but do not specify how much. This dish could turn bad if you add too much. However, overall very east and fast for a weeknight dinner. It is just as delicious using a different flavor of ramen noodles also.

I used a combination of 3 different recipes for this one. I used this suggested recipe for the broth, but then also added 4oz of butter, about 1/8 cup of soy sauce, about 1tablespoon of tonkatsu sauce, and then chili oil and Da Bomb spice (1/8teaspoon). Added pork belly based off of 2 other recipes, which ended up with the following steps: boil pork belly for 15 minutes. Then sauté the pork in a sauce pan with sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, water, ginger, garlic, basil and sage. Finish with corn, green onions and an egg! Yummmm!!!

Great base! You can change it to your taste and add ingredients like mushrooms, spinach, carrots, boiled egg, bamboo shoots, snap peas, etc. This time around I cut 5 slices of ginger (too lazy to chop small), used red chili flakes, and boiled everything together with veggies for a few minutes before adding frozen pork dumplings and the ramen last. If you're going for leftovers, separate the ramen so it doesn't get too mushy!

Delicious. Added bok choy, carrot, mushrooms and peas. Add the bok choy stems and carrots as it starts boiling. After 5 minutes add the bok choy leaves , mushrooms and peas. This was a huge hit, and I'll definitely be making it again.

I added a little cayenne pepper and use a little sugar to balance out the flavors. My husband loved it! Also, I marinated some soft-boiled eggs to top it off with and diced green onions delicious!

Great beginnings - From others I added garlic, thin sliced carrot, water chestnuts, 1 baby bok choy, mushrooms, sugar snap peas, thin green onion to put on top with a poached egg. Dash of soy sauce & sweet & spicy chili sauce. Would have added ginger but not on hubby's top ten list. If leftover chicken or anything in fridge that might go with it. Use any kind of broth. Oh ya .... made enough for leftovers.

This is a really great Ramen Recipe. I used Beef Broth instead of Vegetable Broth, and used plain Ramen (Top Ramen). I added about a cup of cabbage and onions to the sauce pan with some sesame oil and cooked htose before adding the broth and noodles. I will deffinately make this again, maybe with some barbequed pork or beef and some mushrooms too.

This recipe is good ! I tried it without the chilli oil and varied the method of cooking to my liking. 1. I fried the ginger and some fresh veg. in sesame oil (mixed with olive); I set this aside. 2. I cooked the ramen separately, drain it and soak it in cold water to get more "springy" noodles. Thereafter, I drain the cold water away. 3. I combine the other ingredients (seasoning, dried vegetables, ginger and fresh vegetables) with the ramen; pour in some hot water and bring the whole thing to a gentle boil before removing it from the heat. 4. Serve with chopped spring onions and dash of sesame oil. Hope you like this ! Xx

I highly recommend this! If you're not feeling well or fighting a cold, this would especially be a good soup to have. I did use 1/2 packet of the chicken seasoning packet that came with the soup, as well as 1 tsp of no-sodium chicken granules (afraid of the high sodium content with the soy sauce). I didn't have chile oil so subbed with Siracha sauce, and also used powdered ginger, garlic and onion powder, and some chopped canned mushrooms. The longer cooking time gives the noodles a different (better) texture than when normally prepared. I forgot I was having ramen noodles because it tasted like something from a restaurant! Thanks dakota for a great recipe that I'm sure to use again!

This was a wonderful, easy recipe. I love making this when I have no time to cook. My version is slightly different though! I add 1/2 a chopped yellow onion and let it simmer with the soup. I use chili powder instead of chili oil. I also add garlic and cayenne pepper. I never add the packet that comes with the Ramen.

I increased the soy, added sesame oil instead of chili and increased ginger spice. It was good but mild, like an appetizer before an Asian meal. Glad I added a lot of mushrooms and spinach, for color and taste. 2nd time I also added chopped egg, carrots and fresh snap peas.

Living in South Africa, I sometimes add more local vegetables like coarsely grated carrots and finely grated cauliflower.

delicious, quick and easy and simple!! and i know i'm saying this like, more than 15 years after it was made... but its still awesome! only con is that the flavouring from the broth is quite strong :/ quick and easy solution is to do less broth. but i dont do that lol ( haha )

Delicious! Just the right amount of spice, could maybe use a smidge more soy sauce.
