Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz steak cut into slices
  • 8 oz broccoli florets fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon beef broth base
  • 1 tablespoon garlic broth base
  • 2 bundles udon noodles
  • 8 cherry tomtoes slices in half
  • 2 tablespoons garlic minced
  • ½ cup onion chopped
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin optional
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha + more for topping
  • 2 eggs one per bowl
  • 2 tablespoons butter one per egg
  • red pepper flakes for topping
  • kimchi for topping, optional

Instructions
 

  • In a large soup pot over high heat, add one tablespoon of sesame oil and sear the beef on all sides until browned but not cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Remove the beef from the pot. Add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil and saute the onions until tender, about 5-10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Then add the sliced cherry tomatoes and saute until they start to release their moisture, about 2-3 minutes more.
  • Deglaze the pot by adding the mirin and rice vinegar. Stir and scrape up any browned bits, then pour in the soy sauce. Stir to combine.
  • Prepare the broth by stirring the beef and garlic bases into the quart of water. Pour the broth into the pot and bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer for about 5-10 minutes.
  • While the broth simmers, fry each egg in one tablespoon of butter until the yolk reaches your desired doneness. For a wobbly center, fry for 3-5 minutes, for a hard center, fry for 6-8 minutes.
  • Stir the sriracha into the broth, as desired. Then add the broccoli florets. If frozen, let the ramen come back up to a simmer. If fresh, let the florets simmer for about 3 minutes, until they are bright green. Return the beef to the pot and stir to combine.
  • Then add the uncooked udon or ramen noodles to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the noodles are cooked al dente. Use a ladle to spoon the ramen into serving bowls. Serve the fried egg on top with a squirt of sriracha or add on some kimchi for a spicy flair. Enjoy!
