Quick Ramen Bowl

Directions

In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. While you are waiting for the water to boil, wash and slice your veggies. Once the water is boiling, add the dry noodles and cook according to the package directions . Add the seasoning packet and stir until dissolved. Turn the heat down to medium and stir in all of your fresh veggies. Allow them to sit in the hot broth for 1-2 minutes or until slightly softened. Make a well in the center of the pot and crack the egg into it. Allow the egg to poach in the broth until the whites are solid but the yolk is still runny. Alternatively, you can break the yolk and stir the pot just slightly to yield egg ribbons like in egg drop soup. The water should not be boiling at this point or else your egg will dissolve into such small pieces that it will just give you a cloudy broth. Pour the soup into a bowl and serve with a dollop of chili garlic paste on the side.
