Salt
300 g dried or fresh ramen noodles

Toppings

Ingredients
2 handfuls mung bean sprouts, blanched in boiling water for 1 minute and drained
4 organic eggs for ajitsuke tamago, halved
8 slices marinated pork chashu
1 spring onion, cut into very thin rings
½ nori sheet, cut into 4 rectangles
Pepper
Rāyu (optional)

Preparation

For the soup, combine the meat broth, chashu marinade, oyster sauce, and nutritional yeast in a pot. Heat over medium heat and season with salt if needed.

In a large pot of boiling water, cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and divide among four large bowls.

If you buy dried ramen noodles from an Asian grocery store, choose thin, slightly yellow noodles. Homemade noodles, however, always taste better!
