Ingredients

  • 2 packs ramen noodles
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1 carrot, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1/2 cup tofu cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the sliced mushrooms and carrots and cook for 3–4 minutes until slightly softened.
  4. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, peanut butter, and soy sauce with a small amount of warm broth until smooth.
  6. Add the miso-peanut mixture to the pot and stir well to combine.
  7. Add the ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions until tender.
  8. Stir in the baby spinach near the end of cooking and allow it to wilt.
  9. Add lime juice and adjust seasoning if needed.
  10. Ladle the ramen into bowls and top with sliced green onions, chili flakes, and tofu cubes if using.

Notes

  • White miso works best for a mild and slightly sweet flavor.
  • Use gluten-free noodles and gluten-free soy sauce to make the recipe gluten-free.
  • Reduce the peanut butter or add extra broth for a lighter soup.
  • Vegetables like bok choy, broccoli, or snap peas work well in the ramen.
  • Crispy tofu or roasted chickpeas can add extra protein and texture.
  • Add chili paste or sriracha for a spicier broth.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Keep noodles separate from broth when possible to maintain their texture.
