- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced

Instructions
In a large pot, heat the low-sodium vegetable broth over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Whisk the white miso paste, low-sodium soy sauce, and sriracha or chili garlic sauce into the broth until fully dissolved. Add the grated ginger and minced garlic, stirring well.
Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms to the broth and let them simmer for 5 minutes to enhance the flavor.
Stir in the bok choy, julienned carrot, and corn kernels. Simmer for another 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant in color.
In a separate pot, cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
If desired, add 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil to the broth for an additional layer of flavor. This step is optional to keep the dish low fat.
Divide the cooked noodles into two bowls. Ladle the hot miso broth and vegetables over the noodles.
Garnish each bowl with sliced scallions, sesame seeds, and a soft-boiled egg if using.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Low Fat Spicy Miso Ramen!
