Cooking Steps
- Thinly slice the mushrooms.
- Trim the pak choi, then separate the leaves.
- Pick the coriander leaves from their stalks.
- Place a large pot over a medium heat (no oil).
- Once hot, add the sesame seeds and dry-fry, stirring regularly, until lightly toasted, 2-3 mins.
- Once toasted remove from the pot and set aside for serving.
TIP: Watch them like a hawk as they can burn easily.
- Return the (now empty) pot to a high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the mushrooms. Fry until browned, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins.
- Add the pak choi and another drizzle of oil if necessary.
- Cook for 3-4 mins until wilted, shifting occasionally.
- Add the Thai spice and cook for 30 secs until aromatic, shifting frequently.
- Add the harissa paste, vegetable stock, soy sauce, honey and 600ml water (double for 4p).
- Bring to the boil then simmer for 7-8 mins.
- Add the noodles to the stock and cook until warmed through, 1-2 mins.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
TIP: If you're in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
- While the broth simmers, bring a separate pot of water to the boil over a medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, carefully add your eggs (1 per person) to the water.
- Simmer gently for 4-6 mins for a soft-boiled egg.
- Once cooked to your preference, transfer from the pot to a bowl of cold water—this will stop it cooking any further!
- Carefully peel the egg then halve lengthways.
- Divide your spicy ramen between bowls.
- Top with the optional egg.
- Scatter over the sesame seeds and picked coriander leaves.
