Ingredients

Portion
Chefs’ Selections Battered Chicken Fillet Bites

As required
Chefs’ Selections Chicken Bouillon Paste

Portion
Darta Oriental Vegetable Mix

Portion
Udon Noodles

Portion
Pak Choi, cut in half lengthways

As required
Chicken Stock, prepared using Chefs’ Selections Chicken Bouillon Paste

1 tbsp
Soy Sauce

Method

Prepare the soy-marinated eggs.

Mix the soy sauce and mirin together in a bowl.
Boil the eggs for 6 minutes 30 seconds.
Cool completely under cold running water, then carefully peel.
Place the peeled eggs into the soy and mirin mixture and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or for up to 3 days.

Prepare the broth and noodles.

Warm the chicken stock with 1 tbsp of soy sauce in a pan.
Add the Darta Oriental Vegetable Mix, udon noodles and pak choi.
Simmer until the vegetables are tender and the noodles are heated through.

Cook the chicken.
Deep fry the Chefs’ Selections Battered Chicken Fillet Bites at
180°C for 5–6 minutes, until golden and cooked through.

Assemble the ramen.

Divide the noodles and vegetables between serving bowls.
Ladle over some of the hot cooking broth.
Place the crispy chicken on top alongside the pak choi.
Halve a soy-marinated egg and place on each portion.
Serve immediately.

Prepare the soy-marinated eggs in advance for an easy service-time garnish. The longer they sit in the marinade, the deeper the savoury soy flavour and colour will become.
