Baby bok choy makes an excellent addition to classic ramen in this quick soup. I love serving this recipe with bean sprout salad for a tasty lunch or dinner.

Packages of instant ramen soup are a great base to jazz up and add in some vegetables and serious flavor! This spicy ramen with bok choy takes instant noodles to the next level. I This bok choy (or pak choi) ramen has mushrooms, garlic, ginger, and baby bok choy sauteed in a tasty salty miso broth.

This is a fantastic way to level up basic ramen noodles. It makes a great work from home lunch or inexpensive dinner idea. And it’s versatile enough so you can add in any extra flavors (like extra sriracha sauce or spice) that you wish.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

• Ramen noodles – you can use fresh ramen noodles or the dried noodles in the instant packages in the store. Ramen noodles are an inexpensive lunch or dinner option for those on a budget.
• Toasted Sesame Oil: The sesame oil gives the perfect savory flavor. Toasted sesame oil is great paired with the sesame seeds in this soup. You can substitute vegetable oil or olive oil instead.
• Garlic
• Ginger, fresh ginger is preferred, but  you can use dried ginger if desired.
• White Miso Paste – I love this light and sweet miso paste, I keep a few packs in my pantry for recipes when I want to add a little umami flavor in a pinch. Miso is a paste made from lightly fermented soy beans, and adds the perfect amount of flavor to this dish!
• Baby Bok Choy – or Pak Choi, should be easy to find in your local grocery store or in Asian markets. If you can only find regular bok choy (and not baby) then chop the bok choy leaves into bite-sized pieces.
• Vegetable Broth – or chicken broth/chicken stock if preferred
• Mushrooms – you can use shiitake mushrooms or crimini
• Sriracha – for a little heat!  It’s great on soups, curries, and noodle salads. You can substitute red pepper flakes if you can’t find sriracha.
• Egg
• Sesame seeds for garnish

Variations and Add-Ins

• Sliced Green Onions, for flavor
• Extra Firm Tofu or tender chicken
• Bamboo shoots or bean sprouts
• Baby corn
• Lime Juice to top
• Hoisin sauce for added sweetness

How To Make This Recipe

1. In a pot, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
