1 lb carnitas, chopped into rough 1-2" chunks (Trader Joe's has this, Chipotle, any burrito shop really. Just don't get it marinated/dosed in spices-- you want plain)
4 green onions, sliced thin
4 portions fresh ramen noodles (we use fresh wheat noodles found at the local grocery store)
4 soft boiled eggs (or pan fry the eggs last minute if you don't have the time or inclination to soft boil)
Burnt garlic sauce (make this-- you won't regret it--it is truly unbelievable and tasty)
1 T oil
Instructions
Heat the water in a medium pot until boiling. Lower to a simmer and add the miso paste and chicken stock base.
In a frying pan, heat the oil on high. Add the carnitas and stir frequently, frying until crispy (5-8 minutes). If you are feeling frisky, you can add a mixture of soy sauce, mirin, honey, and miso to the pork before frying to add extra flavor. About 1 tablespoon of each (less of the miso).
When all the components are ready to go, add the noodles to the miso on the stove. Simmer until done (I prefer my noodles al dente, so I put them in for about 30 seconds. It's really up to you!)
Portion all the noodles into 4 bowls and pour the broth over. Cut the eggs in half and add to the bowls, along with the pork, green onion, and a tablespoon of garlic sauce.
