Ingredients:

• For the Broth:

  • 4 cups beef broth

  • 2 tbsp miso paste (preferably white or red)

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tsp sesame oil

  • 1-inch piece of ginger, sliced

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

  • 1 tbsp sugar

• For the Beef:

  • 8 oz beef (flank steak or ribeye), thinly sliced

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

  • Salt and pepper to taste

• For the Noodles & Toppings:

  • 2 servings ramen noodles (fresh or dried)

  • 2 boiled eggs (soft or medium boiled)

  • 1 cup sliced green onions

  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (shiitake or button)

  • 1/4 cup nori (seaweed), cut into strips

  • Chili oil (optional, for a spicy kick)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Broth:
   In a large pot, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sliced ginger, sautéing until fragrant (about 2 minutes). Add beef broth, miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar. Stir well until the miso paste dissolves completely. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 10-15 minutes.

2. Cook the Beef:
   While the broth is simmering, heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Season the sliced beef with salt and pepper. Cook the beef for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

3. Prepare the Noodles:
   Cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions, then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

4. Assemble the Ramen:
   Divide the cooked noodles between two bowls. Pour the hot miso broth over the noodles. Top with the cooked beef slices, soft-boiled eggs, sliced green onions, mushrooms, and nori strips.

5. Optional Toppings:
   Add a drizzle of chili oil for some heat and extra flavor. You can also garnish with sesame seeds for an added crunch.

Tips for the Best Beef Miso Ramen:

• Broth Depth: Adjust the miso paste and soy sauce to your taste for a more intense flavor.

• Beef Choice: Flank steak is lean and tender, but ribeye offers more fat for a richer flavor.

• Eggs: For perfectly soft-boiled eggs, cook them for 6-7 minutes, then transfer them to ice water before peeling.

Conclusion:

This Beef Miso Ramen is the perfect fusion of savory flavors and textures. Whether you're slurping up noodles in a cozy bowl or sharing it with friends, it’s a satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy. Make sure to keep this recipe in your rotation for those days when only a bowl of ramen will do!
