Have you ever sat yourself down at a Ramen bar and just been completely enamored with the colorful broth-y masterpiece set in front of you? With the white and pink-spiraled fish cakes, bright green scallions, crisp nori strips, and perfectly yolk-y eggs…
Have you ever been able to picture yourself building your own Ramen empire in your very own kitchen? You should, because you can.
The flavor profile of true Ramen broths can be beautifully complex with sweet, spicy, and savory notes dancing along your tastebuds with subtle hints of fish.
You can certainly go that route and create dashi from scratch, then turn it into a Shoyu Ramen or a Kake Soba With Hon Tsuyu Broth. (SO soso good.)
But if you’re just at home, feeling lazy, and hankering something that tastes like a Ramen bowl, looks like a Ramen bowl, and warms your belly like a Ramen bowl, there’s no need to fuss. You can get it done, and with minimal ingredients that you probably already have kickin’ around in your pantry.
Also! If you have a local Asian market, check them out. Because your pantry item options can easily expand out to things like shimeji mushrooms and naruto—you know, those pretty white and pink-spiraled fish cakes. I have some in my freezer right now.
Easy Homemade Ramen Bowls.
All you *really* need is garlic, ginger, sesame oil, olive oil, vegetable broth (you can use chicken broth, if you’re not pesce/veg), a packet of Ramen noodles, Sriracha or sambal for some heat, and veggies for nutrition. I like to add shredded carrots, sliced scallions, and if I have them, shiitake mushrooms.
Oh, and obviously a soft-boiled egg, which is basically the best part; it’s the cherry on the Ramen sundae.
I typically keep my bowls veg-based. It’s the easy thing to do, and this bowl of goodness is all about feeding yourself while lazy. But adding a protein is always good, especially if you have leftovers in the fridge that you need to use up. Tofu, sustainable shrimp—or again, if you’re omnivorous—chicken or pork. You do you, babe.
If you love Ramen and are eager to make it at home often, you have to try this Spicy Shoyu Ramen and this Miso Ramen!

Easy Homemade Ramen Bowls
Ingredients
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp freshly grated ginger
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced (optional)
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 TBSP rice vinegar (optional)
- 3 TBSP low-sodium soy sauce (more to taste)
- 1 TBSP Sriracha sauce (more or less, depending on your heat tolerance)
- 2 3 oz portions of Ramen (discard the flavor packets)
Toppings
- Sliced scallions
- Sesame seeds
- Shredded carrots
- Soft-boiled egg
Instructions
- Heat sesame oil and olive oil in a medium-large saucepan over moderate (see notes). Add garlic and ginger, and simmer until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Do not brown the garlic, or else you'll get a bitter flavor.
- Add the carrots and mushrooms if you're using them, and simmer until they soften, about a minute, stirring frequently.
- Add the broth, Sriracha sauce, rice vinegar (if using), and soy sauce. Stir, and bring to a simmer; let it go for about five minutes. Taste, and adjust heat and taste to your liking by adding more Sriracha and soy sauce if needed.
- Carefully place the Ramen noodles into the pot of simmering broth and allow to cook for approx. 2-3 minutes, or until cooked and tender.
- Carefully transfer the soup and noodles to bowls, and allow to cool. At this time, make your soft-boiled egg.
Soft-Boiled Egg
- Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the egg(s), and let them boil for five minutes. In the meantime, prepare an ice bath in a bowl. Once five minutes are up, remove the egg(s) and dunk them into the ice bath for about a minute to cool them off enough to handle. Then, lightly crack and roll them on a flat surface, peel, slice in half, and place on top of your Ramen.
- Garnish with your toppings of choice.
- Fall into a state of bliss.

June 14, 2020 at 3:38 pmI’ve been eating this on a daily basis for about a week. I love that it’s amazing in its own and still amazing when you add your own additions like a couple frozen broccoli florets right before adding the broth. You can create an amazing bowl of noodles by changing it up. Cilantro is a great addition. I’ve hated ramen until now. Thank you SOOOOO MUCH.
Hillary
May 21, 2020 at 9:57 amOh my gosh, this was so good and easy! I substituted Bragg’s Liquid Aminos for soy sauce and added in some green onions to cook with the mushrooms and carrots. My significant other requested that I make it again, so thank you for such a quick and clean soup to add to my meal rotation. Ah-mazing!
Killing Thyme
May 23, 2020 at 11:39 amSo glad you loved this, Hillary! And I’m glad your adaptations worked well. I love when people can successfully take one of my recipes and make it their own <3 Happy weekend!

May 27, 2020 at 7:30 pmI don’t have any kind of broth at home at the moment so I was wondering if I could just do water and add in a chicken or beef boleyn and season it?
Killing Thyme
May 28, 2020 at 5:16 pmChicken or beef bouillon, did you mean? You could definitely use that instead of broth!

Mayra S Lacen
January 17, 2020 at 12:21 pmSuch delicious broth and so many options: I added peas, bean sprouts, bok choy, cilantro, and shrimp (omitted mushrooms and sesame). Perfect for when one is too lazy to get out of the house, and too cheap to order take out.
Amazing!
Killing Thyme
May 23, 2020 at 11:41 amYes Mayra! I’m so glad you were able to use this recipe for exactly what it was intended :) Your additions sound perfect. We love bok choy in this house!
Sam Stidd
January 15, 2020 at 11:13 pmThis recipe was so good!!!! I traded out the siracha for a spicy chili sauce that is used to make siracha since my house doesn’t like siracha. I used a teaspoon and a half of that instead of a tablespoon of siracha and it was perfect!!!!!
Killing Thyme
May 23, 2020 at 11:42 amSam! I’m so glad it all worked out. We’ve used chili sauce in many of our Ramen bowls and it just works so well. Thanks for the feedback!
Sarah Belissima
January 5, 2020 at 9:30 pmThis recipe is AMAZING! I tweaked it a little (I used better than bouillon instead of vegetable broth) and did not use sesame oil. It turned out to be delicious!

January 1, 2020 at 12:34 amGreat ramen recipe!! I love the part of putting the soft boiled egg in it. It makes it taste even better! There are a lot of allergies in my house so I cut out the ginger and carrots. I make my own homemade chicken broth and I also make my own ramen noodles so I didn’t need to use a ramen package. I decided to add the chicken that was used to make the broth into this ramen recipe. That was a great last minute addition. My family and I loved it! Thanks again for the recipe! I will definitely be making this again!

December 3, 2019 at 6:56 pmAmazing! And so easy to make! I used chili garlic sauce for the sriracha (it’s what I had) and added bok choy and chicken. Delicious!! I just shared the recipe with a bunch of friends. Will definitely be putting this in the regular rotation!

December 5, 2019 at 8:27 amMeredith! I’m so glad you enjoyed this. I love your adaptations. Bok choy is so damn good. And heck yes to chili garlic sauce! That good stuff works swimmingly in a Ramen. Thanks for stopping by with feedback and for spreading the good word <3
Maggie
November 23, 2019 at 3:11 pmDo you mean Roasted Sesame Oil or cooking sesame oil? My understanding is roasted is to be added for the flavor and not to be used for cooking/frying.

September 30, 2019 at 5:42 pmIm sorry. I haven’t made this yet but Im not a big fan of spice. Does the amount of sriracha sauce required in the recipe make it spicy?
Killing Thyme
September 30, 2019 at 6:48 pmHi Chloe! The Sriracha in this recipe definitely gives it a kick. If you’re not into spicy foods, you can skip the Sriracha. It won’t have a negative impact :) I hope you enjoy it!

This looks amazing and I went to the shops to get all my ingredients however I can’t seem to find ramen noodles they all seem to say BBQ flavour, shrimp flavour etc.
please help me out as I really want to cook this tonight.
Thanks :)
Killing Thyme
May 10, 2019 at 10:34 amHi Jessica! You can definitely still get any of those prepackaged “flavored” Ramen noodles. The flavored seasoning is in a separate little package tucked in with the noodles; you can just discard it :)
Hope you love it! Let me know how it goes or if I can help further.
Gabe
May 29, 2019 at 3:00 pmJust get buckwheat noodles they’re the same thing
Killing Thyme
May 29, 2019 at 3:57 pmBuckwheat noodles will work, but they definitely have a different flavor and texture than Ramen. Buckwheat noodles are interchangeable with soba noodles, though!
Wendy
November 7, 2019 at 3:06 pmStop and shop has ramen noodles, real ones!
Marissa
June 8, 2019 at 8:17 pmDon’t use the flavoring package

June 10, 2019 at 7:03 pmIt doesn’t matter what flavor noodles you get since you will just use the noodles instead of the flavoring packets inside. But of course, fresh is always better!

February 8, 2019 at 7:39 amThanks for this quick and delicious recipe! We made it last night and everyone loved it. We added some chicken breast tenders (baked in the oven and cut into small pieces) and some baby bok choy (white sections chopped into bite-sized pieces and added to the simmering soup to soften, and leafy greens added to the pot at the table). We also roasted the mushrooms at very high heat in the oven, because we like that little bit of crispy texture they pick up this way! We will definitely be making this in the future. Thanks again!

Vanity
January 21, 2019 at 12:20 amThis may be a really silly question but the Ginger that was used.. was it crushed?or grinder? What was the consistency of it and where did you find it? :)
Killing Thyme
January 21, 2019 at 10:16 amHi Vanity!
The ginger is grated fresh from ginger root, which every grocery store should have in their produce section. It’s usually near the garlic. You could also use the ginger that comes in a tube if that’s more convenient. But don’t use ground ginger (the dry spice), that would change things up quite a bit, and probably not in a good way :P
I hope this helps! Don’t ever feel bad asking questions. Cooking is learning as you go <3

January 15, 2019 at 10:34 amJulia! I’m so glad you’re into this recipe. It’s funny—I brought it to the blog on a whim years ago. There didn’t seem to be much demand for such a thing, but I was always craving Ramen so came up with an easy at-home knock off to enjoy on chilly rainy days. Perfect for anyone who doesn’t want to go out to pick it up OR for those who don’t have a legit Ramen place nearby. All I wanted was to give a few others out there that sort of ease. And now, it’s my most popular recipe on the blog. Which makes my heart happy.

Alina Sebastian
January 12, 2019 at 10:00 pmHow [raw or cooked) would I add tofu & when, can I use dry shiitake mushrooms?
Killing Thyme
January 13, 2019 at 11:21 amIt depends on how you like your tofu. Technically tofu doesn’t need to be cooked, but you want it to soak up flavors and have a bit of texture otherwise it will taste very bland. I’d add tofu in at the beginning and let it simmer with the garlic and ginger to pick up some flavor. You could also cook it separately and make crispy tofu (here’s my go-to method: https://www.killingthyme.net/vegetarianism/how-to-cook-crispy-tofu/) and add it to the soup upon serving.
I’ve never used dried shiitake, only fresh. I think with dry, you have to soak them for about 20 minutes to bring them back to life (check the instructions on the packaging), and then you can add them as you would fresh mushrooms.
Hope this helps!
Alina Sebastian
January 13, 2019 at 2:25 pmIt helps greatly! Thank you so much for your helpful response.

Whitney
January 7, 2018 at 1:08 amDid the recipe change? My husband requests this fairly often and cooking it felt very different this time. I feel like I was missing mushrooms and rice vinegar. Also didn’t there used to be more soy sauce?
Killing Thyme
January 7, 2018 at 11:41 amHi Whitney! I did just alter the recipe to be a bit more “pantry staple” friendly and have less sodium. The previous version would have had you adding shiitake mushrooms with the carrots, prior to adding the broth. You can still add a TBSP of rice vinegar! I found that a lot of family/friends would ask if it was necessary, since they didn’t often have it on hand. It’s an option. And as for the soy sauce, it used to call for 1/4 cup. I use just less than that now, but if that’s your preference, by all means! Hope this helps.
Killing Thyme
January 7, 2018 at 11:53 amHey Whitney! Just an FYI — I added in the old ingredients/steps to the recipe here as optional so you can more easily stick with the old recipe <3

I can definitely see how it could resemble mazeman, too. The broth is covered by all of that goodness.
