Ingredients
For scallion oil
- 75 grams scallions
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 25 grams ginger (finely minced)
- 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon white pepper
For spicy pork topping
- 100 grams ground pork
- 8 grams garlic (grated)
- 1 tablespoon doubanjiang
- 2 teaspoons sake
- 2 teaspoons Potato Starch
- 2 teaspoons oyster sauce
- 3 tablespoons dashi stock
To assemble
- 260 grams ramen noodles (2 servings)
- nori (shredded)
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
- 2 eggs (optional)
Instructions
- Trim the roots off 75 grams scallions and then separate the greens from the stems. Split the stems into quarters lengthwise and then chop them into a fine mince.
- Thinly slice the scallion greens and set aside to use for the topping.
- In a medium bowl, add 100 grams ground pork, 8 grams garlic, 1 tablespoon doubanjiang, 2 teaspoons sake, and 2 teaspoons potato starch. Use chopsticks to loosely mix the ingredients without mashing them into a paste.
- Add ¼ cup vegetable oil, the minced scallion stems, 25 grams ginger, 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder, and ⅛ teaspoon salt to a small frying pan and fry the aromatics over medium heat until they are tender and just starting to brown (about 5-6 minutes)
- Turn off the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil until the mixture stops sizzling. Stir in 1 tablespoon rice vinegar and ¼ teaspoon white pepper.
- Divide the scallion oil evenly between two ramen bowls. You want to leave a light coating of oil behind in the pan. Then, return the pan to the stove.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Add the ground pork mixture to the pan where you made the scallion oil, and turn the stove onto high heat. Use a spatula to crumble the pork as it cooks.
- Add 2 teaspoons oyster sauceand 3 tablespoons dashi stock when the meat is cooked through, and boil the mixture until the starch thickens. Turn off the heat and set the spicy pork topping aside.
- Add 260 grams ramen noodles to the boiling water and cook them according to the cooking time specified on the package. Drain the noodles and then divide them between the two bowls.
- Use chopsticks to mix the noodles with the scallion oil.
- Top each bowl of mazemen with nori, sliced scallion greens, spicy pork, and 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds.
- Optional: separate 2 eggs and top each bowl of mazemen with an egg yolk (save the whites for something else).
