Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp cooking oil
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1 ripe and firm tomato chopped
  • 1-2 tbsp chopped ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1-2 tbsp Sriracha
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 liter water see notes
  • 1-2 vegetable cubes see notes
  • ½ tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 packages ramen noodles seasoning packet discarded
  • Spring onions sliced
  • Coriander roughly chopped
  • Corn kernel optional
  • Salt or to taste
  • Poached eggs or boiled eggs
  • cooked squid balls (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a pot over medium-high heat, add cooking oil.
  2. Add garlic and ginger; cook until soft.

  3. Add tomatoes and onions; cook until soft.
  4. Add vegetable cubes, Sriracha, and garlic powder.
  5. Turn off the heat and add about ½ cup to 1 cup of water just to prepare the mixture for the blender. Transfer the mixture to a blender and pulse until smooth.
  6. Put back the mixture to the pot and then turn on the heat to medium-high.
  7. Add the remaining water and let it boil.
  8. When boiling, add 2 packages of ramen noodles and simmer until noodles are cooked.
  9. Serve with spring onions, coriander, and poached (or boiled) eggs. You can add whatever toppings or mix-ins you fancy. I always love my noodles with corn kernels.

Recipe Notes

Instead of water + vegetable cubes, you can use homemade or store-bought vegetable broth.

You can start with 1 tbsp of Sriracha. I used 2 tbsp & it has just enough spiciness for me.
