Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Bring broth to boil in a pot. Add ground pork, breaking it up with a spoon, until no pink remains, 4 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in chili oil, soy sauce, and mirin until fragrant, 1 minute.

  3. Step 3

    Add noodles and stir to separate. Simmer until tender, 3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Crack eggs into the simmering broth. Poach until whites set but yolks still jiggle, 3 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Ladle into bowls, dividing pork and noodles evenly. Top with scallions and extra chili oil.
