Satisfying Spicy Beef Ramen in a Single Pot

Finishing the Dish

1. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over the soup for a nutty, aromatic finish. Stir to incorporate the sesame oil into the broth.
2. To serve, ladle the spicy beef ramen into bowls. If desired, top each bowl with sesame seeds, chopped green onions, or fresh cilantro for added flavor and color. For an extra indulgent touch, you can also add a soft-boiled egg on top—its creamy yolk adds richness to the dish.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve the ramen immediately while it’s hot. It pairs wonderfully with a side of steamed vegetables or a small Asian-style salad.
• If you like extra heat, add more chili paste or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the top before serving.
• For a more filling meal, consider adding vegetables such as spinach, bok choy, or mushrooms to the ramen while it simmers for extra nutrition and texture.

Notes

• If you prefer a lighter version, you can substitute the beef for chicken breast or tofu for a vegetarian option.
• You can adjust the spice level of this dish by using less chili paste or Sriracha. If you prefer a milder broth, try using a mild chili paste or omitting the chili paste altogether.
• This dish is perfect for meal prep. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop, adding a bit more water or broth to loosen the soup if needed.
