Beef and Broccoli Ramen Noodles
A savory blend of beef, broccoli, and udon noodles in a rich broth topped with a fried egg.
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. Sear the beef slices on all sides until browned but not fully cooked, about 3-5 minutes. Remove the beef from the pot.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil to the pot and sauté the onions until tender, about 5-10 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Next, add the sliced cherry tomatoes and sauté until they start to release their moisture, about 2-3 minutes.
- Deglaze the pot by adding the mirin and rice vinegar. Stir to 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 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 sriracha into the broth to taste. Add the broccoli florets. If using frozen broccoli, bring the ramen back up to a simmer. If using fresh, allow the florets to simmer for about 3 minutes until bright green. Return the beef to the pot and stir to combine.
- Add the udon noodles to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the noodles are al dente. Use a ladle to spoon the ramen into serving bowls.
- Serve each bowl topped with a fried egg, a squirt of additional sriracha, and optionally, kimchi for added spice. Enjoy!
