This vegan spicy ramen soup starts with this beautiful umami flavoured broth. Even though there's many ingredients, it's so simple to put together! The broth itself is EVERYTHING! Put away those instant ramen packages and give this one a try, I promise you'll never look back!
Broth: Heat medium sized pot on stove on medium. Add canola oil, sesame oil, paprika powder, Chinese 5-spice powder, asafoetida and ginger and roast until ginger is slightly browned. Add tomato paste and roast for another 2 minutes. Add red curry paste, miso paste, water, coconut milk, vegetable broth, soy sauce, sugar and let cook for 20-25 mins. Add salt and pepper to taste
This ramen recipe is so versatile, you can add whatever vegetables you have available(such as bok choy, broccoli, peppers, beans, corn, mushroom or spinach) and your favourite vegan protein options (tofu, tempeh or soy curd). The broth is full of flavour, you can even add your veggies raw and let it cook in the hot broth for a couple minutes.
