20-Minute Spicy Sriracha Ramen Noodle Soup


I made the recipe in the normal proportions and it also didn’t come out like the picture – like she said, though, it is super brothy. I think next time I might scale back the broth and add a can of crushed tomatoes to make it a little heartier (and quicker without dicing the tomato… lazy me :). I love this flavor profile, though, and maybe next time I’ll be brave enough to try poaching an egg!

Ingredients

    2 tablespoons sesame oil
    2 tablespoons sriracha hot sauce
    1 small onion, diced
    1 small roma tomato, diced
    1 tablespoon ginger, grated
    5 cloves garlic, minced
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/2 teaspoon celery salt
    4 cups vegetable broth
    2 cups water
    1 tablespoon soy sauce
    1 teaspoon rice vinegar (optional; only if you like tang)
    3 packages ramen noodles
    1/2 cup scallions, chopped
    1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
    2 poached eggs (optional)

Instructions

    Add the sesame oil and sriracha to a large stockpot and bring to a simmer over medium-heat. Add the onion and tomato and cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the ginger, garlic, and seasonings; cook for 2 minutes or until fragrant. Add 2 cups of water and transfer mixture to a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth. Return mixture to the pot and add the broth.
    Bring to a simmer; add soy sauce and vinegar (if using), and simmer for 8-10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
    Add the ramen noodles to the broth and simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the noodles have softened. Add the scallions, stir to combine. Remove pan from heat, ladle soup into bowls, and top with cilantro and eggs. Enjoy!
