Instructions
Finely chop the garlic cloves, grate the fresh ginger, and slice the green onions. Keep the green parts and white parts of the onions separate.
Thinly slice the shiitake mushrooms and the carrot, and cut the napa cabbage into shreds.
Press and cube the extra-firm tofu into bite-sized pieces.
In a large pot over medium heat, heat the sesame oil. Add the white parts of the green onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms and a small pinch of salt. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms start to become tender.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a gentle simmer.
Stir in the soy sauce and miso paste until the miso is fully dissolved.
Simmer the broth for about 10 minutes to let the flavors meld, then add the sliced carrot and napa cabbage. Cook for another 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Add the cubed tofu and baby spinach to the simmering broth. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts.
To serve, divide the cooked ramen noodles among 4 bowls.
Ladle the hot broth with vegetables and tofu over the noodles.
Top each bowl with chopped green onion tops, torn pieces of nori, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Drizzle a bit of chili oil over each bowl and serve with lime wedges on the side for a bright finish.
