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 a large saucepan, a sieve & a measuring jug

Simmer the broth

  • Thinly slice the mushrooms. Thinly slice the radishes into matchsticks. Slice the chicken into 1cm thick strips
  • Fill the large saucepan with 700ml hot water (350ml for 1 person) and bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Stir in the ginger & garlic paste, stock, tamari, vinegar, miso and half the furikake.
  • Add the mushrooms and chicken, then lower the heat and simmer for 6 mins. Season lightly with salt and pepper

Boil the egg

  • Meanwhile, carefully lower the egg into the small saucepan of boiling water using a spoon
  • Boil for 7 mins, then remove and run under cold water

Finish the ramen

  • Add the noodles and edamame to the broth and cook for another 4-5 mins, until the noodles are soft and the chicken is cooked through

Plate up

  • Check your chicken is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear
  • Carefully peel and halve the egg
  • Share the ramen between bowls, topped with the egg halves. Garnish with the radish and remaining furikake
