Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Bring a small saucepan filled with water to a boil
  • Pull out 2 large saucepans, a small bowl, a measuring jug & a sieve

Do the prep

  • Thinly slice the radishes, then add to the small bowl with the rice vinegar and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside to pickle
  • Thinly slice the mushrooms. Slice the ginger into thin discs. Slice the chicken into 1cm thick strips

Fry the mushrooms & boil the eggs

  • Heat a large saucepan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the mushrooms and cook for 5-6 mins, until softened. Season with salt and pepper
  • Meanwhile, carefully lower the eggs into the saucepan of boiling water using a spoon. Boil for 7 mins, then remove and run under cold water

Simmer simmer

  • Add the ginger, miso, tamari, half the sesame seeds and 750ml hot water to the mushrooms. Bring to the boil, then add the chicken, lower the heat and simmer for 11 mins, until cooked through
  • Meanwhile, bring the other large saucepan filled with salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add the noodles, gently separate with a fork and boil for 6-7 mins, until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water

Bring everything together

  • Check your chicken is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear
  • When the chicken is cooked, stir the cooked noodles into the broth with the edamame beans and simmer for 1 min, until hot. Season to taste

Finish & plate up

  • Carefully peel the eggs, then cut in half
  • Stir the pickling juice from the radish into the ramen then season to taste with salt and pepper
  • Serve the ramen into bowls, topped with the eggs. Garnish with the pickled radish, chilli flakes (for those who'd like the heat) and the remaining sesame seeds
