The Best ramen with egg recipe
I’ve always been a fan of ramen, and when I discovered this simple recipe that adds an egg to the mix, I knew I had to share it with everyone. The dish originated in Japan, where it’s a staple in many households.
The rich broth, springy noodles, and variety of toppings make it a comfort food like no other. I love how the egg cooks in the hot broth, creating a creamy, velvety texture that’s hard to resist.
My kids devour this meal, and it’s become a staple in our household for quick weeknight dinners or weekend lunches. The best part?
It’s incredibly easy to make and packed with nutrients from the vegetables and protein from the egg. I often add some spinach or bok choy to boost the nutritional value even further.
The key to making great ramen is using a flavorful broth that’s simmered for at least 4 hours to extract all the goodness from the bones. This recipe uses chicken bones for added depth of flavor.
Once you’ve got your broth, it’s just a matter of adding your favorite toppings and cooking your egg to perfection.
