Instructions:
- Cook the Ramen
Prepare 1 pack instant ramen noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside. Discard or set aside the flavor packet. - Make the Sauce
In the same pot or a skillet, melt ½ tbsp vegan butter over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for 30–60 seconds until fragrant. Add 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp teriyaki sauce, ½ tbsp brown sugar (if using), and ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes. Stir and simmer for 1 minute. - Toss and Serve
Add the cooked noodles to the sauce and toss until fully coated. Plate immediately and top with sliced green onions and crushed peanuts.
Notes:
For a deeper broth, dissolve the miso paste separately in a small amount of warm broth before adding it to the pot. This prevents clumping and distributes flavor more evenly.
Miso should be added off-heat or at very low temperature — boiling destroys the beneficial probiotics and dulls the flavor.
Tips:
Top with a soft-boiled egg (vegan: marinated tofu), nori, sesame seeds, chili oil, and scallions for a complete bowl.
Storage:
Store broth and noodles separately in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Noodles absorb broth quickly and become soggy if stored together.
Swaps:
Ramen noodles can be swapped for soba, udon, or rice noodles. White miso can be replaced with red miso for a richer, saltier broth.
