Ingredients
- 150 g pork belly or chicken bitesize pieces, thin sliced
- 500 ml dashi stock
- 2 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp mirin
- 1 tbsp red miso paste to flavor the ingredients, preferably hatcho miso
- 2 tbsp red miso paste to flavor the soup
- 2 portions udon noodles
- 50 g green onion sliced
- 50 g shiitake mushroom sliced, fresh
- 2 egg
- 2 pieces fried tofu pouch aburaage (optional, aburaage
- 6 kamaboko kamaboko, sliced, optional, fish cake
Instructions
- Heat up a frying pan on a medium heat, once hot add a drizzle of oil and 150 g thin sliced pork belly. Sear the meat until the fat is slightly crispy.
- Take a pot and add 500 ml dashi stock. Heat up on medium/medium-high. Once the dashi is almost boiling, add 2 tsp sugar, 2 tsp mirin and mix until dissolved.
- Place 1 tbsp red miso paste onto a mesh spoon or ladle and submerge it into the dashi broth briefly. Use a small whisk or chopsticks to break it up and gradually incorporate it into the broth. (Alternatively, place the miso paste in a small bowl with a few tbsp of the hot dashi, break up/whisk until there are no more lumps of miso and then pour it into the rest of the broth.)
- Cook 2 portions udon noodles in a separate pot for 3 minutes less than the packaging states and rinse with hot water to remove the excess starch.
- Transfer the udon noodles, meat and the rest of the ingredients (50 g green onion, 50 g fresh shiitake mushroom, 2 pieces fried tofu pouch (aburaage), 6 kamaboko fish cake) to the dashi broth and cook for 3 minutes.
- Turn the heat down to low and incorporate 2 tbsp red miso paste using the same method as before.
- Crack 2 egg into the pot.
- Place a lid on top and continue to cook for about 2 minutes or until the eggs are done to your liking.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- You can use chicken or pork for this recipe. Thinly sliced meat works best.
