Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Bring a pot of water to boil. Gently lower eggs in and cook for 6.5 minutes until soft-boiled.

  2. Step 2

    While eggs cook, cut pork belly into two thick slabs. Pat dry with paper towels.

  3. Step 3

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear pork 3 minutes per side until golden and skin crisps.

  4. Step 4

    Pour dashi into a separate pot and bring to simmer. Whisk in miso paste and soy sauce until smooth.

  5. Step 5

    Cook ramen noodles in the dashi broth for 3 minutes until tender. Divide between bowls.

  6. Step 6

    Slice pork, place on noodles, top with peeled soft-boiled egg. Garnish with scallions and nori.
