Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Bring a small pot of water to a boil and gently add the eggs, cooking for 6–7 minutes until soft-boiled.

  2. Step 2

    Fill a large pot with 4 cups water and bring to a boil. Stir in the broth concentrate until dissolved, about 1 minute.

  3. Step 3

    Add the pork slices to the broth and simmer until just cooked through, 2–3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add the ramen noodles to the same pot and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, 3–4 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Peel the soft-boiled eggs and halve them. Divide the noodles and broth into two bowls.

  6. Step 6

    Top each bowl with an egg, scallions, chili oil, and nori. Serve immediately.
