Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pork shoulder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 inch Ginger
- 1 tablespoon Red chili flakes
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 2 cups Water
- 9 ounces Ramen noodles
- 2 heads Baby bok choy
- 2 for garnish Scallions
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 pieces Soft-boiled eggs
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha
Instructions
Season the pork shoulder with salt and black pepper evenly on all sides.
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the pork shoulder and sear it on all sides until browned, about 8-10 minutes.
Remove the pork from the pot and set aside. In the same pot, reduce the heat to medium and add minced garlic and sliced ginger. Sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add red chili flakes and sauté for another minute before pouring in the soy sauce, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
Return the pork shoulder to the pot. Add chicken broth and water, bringing the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for about 1 hour or until the pork is tender.
Remove the pork from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return shredded pork to the pot.
Add ramen noodles and sliced baby bok choy to the pot, cooking for an additional 5 minutes until the noodles are tender.
Stir in sesame oil and Sriracha into the broth. Adjust seasoning to taste with more salt or soy sauce if needed.
Ladle the ramen into bowls, ensuring each serving gets an ample amount of pork and vegetables.
Top each bowl with a halved soft-boiled egg and garnish with sliced scallions.
Serve hot and enjoy your spicy pork ramen!
