Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Bring broth to a boil in a large pot over medium-high heat, about 3–4 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add pork belly slices, pushing them apart gently. Simmer for 4 minutes until pork is just cooked through.

  3. Step 3

    Whisk miso paste in a small bowl with 1/4 cup warm broth, then stir it into the pot until smooth.

  4. Step 4

    Add ramen noodles, gently breaking them apart. Cook for 3–4 minutes until tender but still chewy.

  5. Step 5

    Create a small well in the noodle mound and carefully crack eggs into the broth. Simmer 2 minutes until whites set but yolks jiggle.

  6. Step 6

    Ladle into bowls and scatter scallions over the top. Serve immediately.
