Ingredients

Main Ingredients

½ pound ground beef preferably grass-fed for best flavor
2 packs ramen noodles any brand, without the seasoning packets
1 tbsp vegetable oil or sesame oil for added aroma
3 cloves garlic minced
1 inch ginger grated
2 tbsp soy sauce low-sodium preferred
1 tbsp oyster sauce
2 cups chicken broth preferably homemade
1 stalk green onion thinly sliced

Optional Toppings

1 pc soft-boiled egg per bowl
¼ cup sriracha or chili oil for heat, to taste

Instructions

Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger; sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and slightly crispy, around 5 to 7 minutes.
Stir in the soy sauce and oyster sauce, coating the beef evenly, and cook for another 2 minutes to deepen the flavor.
In a separate pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer.
Add the ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions until just tender, about 3 minutes.
Combine the cooked noodles with the ground beef mixture, ensuring the noodles are well-coated with the sauce.
Divide the beef and noodle mixture into bowls, ladle the surplus broth over, and garnish with sliced green onions and any optional toppings like a soft-boiled egg or a dash of sriracha.

Notes

For a more robust flavor, consider toasting the ramen noodles in a dry pan before cooking them in the broth.
Adjust the amount of chili oil or sriracha to taste for those who prefer a spicy kick.
