Ingredients

  • 2 cups water

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tsp tamari
  • 1 tsp vegetarian oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp dark miso
  • 1/2 tsp chili garlic sauce
  • 1/4 tsp maple syrup
  • 1/4 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/2 cup shelled frozen edamames
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas

Recipe

  1. Step 1

    Add the water and vegetable broth concentrate to a medium pot. Stir until the concentrate is mostly dissolved and bring to a boil on high heat.

  2. Step 2

    Carefully add the ramen to the pot and cook for 3 minutes or until al-dente.

  3. Step 3

    Reduce the heat to medium.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in the rice vinegar, tamari, vegetarian oyster sauce, miso, chili garlic sauce, maple syrup, and sesame oil. Give the ramen a toss too, to separate it.

  5. Step 5

    Add the frozen shelled edamames and frozen peas and cook until warm, but still bright green.

  6. Step 6

    Taste the broth and adjust seasonings to your liking by adding more tamari, chili garlic sauce, or sesame oil.

  7. Step 7

    Transfer to a bowl and garnish with a drizzle of chili oil, sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and chili flakes. Enjoy!

Common Questions & Swaps

  • What if I don’t have vegetable broth concentrate? You can use half a cube of bouillon, 2 cups of low sodium vegetable broth, or 1 cup of full sodium vegetable broth + 1 cup of water.

  • Can I replace the rice vinegar with another kind of vinegar? I would advise against it. But you could use 1-2 teaspoons of lime juice instead.

  • Can I use soy sauce instead of tamari? Yes, but start with 1 teaspoon and add more of it if desired.

  • What can I use instead of chili garlic sauce? Sriracha works well.

  • For the frozen veggies, you can replace the peas or edamames with corn for tasty results.
