Description

Nothing beats this recipe for saimin, or Hawaiian ramen, when you want a quick, cheap bowl of hot noodles in a flavorful dashi broth with ham and egg.

Ingredients

2 large eggs
water
1 (10 ounce) package refrigerated fresh ramen noodles (such as Sun Noodle)
1 (3/4 ounce) packet dashi granules (such as Hondashi® Soup Stock)
4 slices fully cooked luncheon meat (such as SPAM®), cut into bite-sized pieces
1 green onion, thinly sliced

Directions

1 Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a pot; add eggs and boil until yolks are barely set, about 6 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel.
2 Bring 2 cups water to a boil in the same pot. Add noodles and dashi. Cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite, about 3 minutes.
3 Divide soup and noodles between two bowls; add eggs, luncheon meat, and green onion.
