For ramen base:

  • 500ml chicken stock
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 spring onion stalk, chopped
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, sliced
  • 1 fresh chili (green or red)
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 2 tbsp mirin

Instructions

  1. For the caramelised soy chicken, place all the ingredients for the chicken marinade in a bowl. Mix well to coat the chicken. If time permits, allow the chicken to marinate for at least 1 hour.
  2. Cook the chicken in a frying pan on a medium hob, making sure the outside marinade doesn’t burn.
  3. While the chicken is cooking, mix the brown sugar and soy sauce for the glaze. After the chicken is halfway through cooking, spoon the glaze over them. Let the chicken cook further until fully done. Set the chicken aside to cool down, then slice.
  4. To make the ramen, in one saucepan place the stock, ginger, garlic, spring onions, chili (if using), soy sauce, and mirin. Stop and cover the pot. Let it come to a boil at medium-high heat. Lower the heat to medium and let it simmer for 25 minutes. Taste the base and add more soy sauce if needed.
  5. Strain to remove the garlic, ginger, chili, and spring onions, and turn to medium heat. Add the precooked ramen noodles and cook as per the instructions.
  6. Wash the bok choi and cut it into smaller pieces if necessary. Place into a bowl and drizzle a little soy sauce and sesame oil on top, adding the sliced garlic clove and tossing to combine. Microwave in 1 minute increments with a cover over, until softened.
  7. To serve, divide the stock and noodles into two bowls. Add the bok choi, sliced chicken, spring onions, radishes, and a soft-boiled or ramen egg. Enjoy!
