Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 810 frozen dumplings
  • 1 package instant ramen noodles
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon black sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare soft-boiled eggs: Bring a pot of water to a boil, then carefully add the eggs. Cook for 6-7 minutes to achieve a soft-boiled consistency. Transfer the eggs immediately to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process, allow them to cool, then peel and halve.
  2. Heat and season broth: In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a gentle simmer. Stir in the soy sauce and sesame oil to create a rich, flavorful broth base.
  3. Cook dumplings in broth: Add the frozen dumplings directly into the simmering broth. Let them cook for 8-10 minutes or until they float to the surface and are heated through.
  4. Add ramen noodles: Place the instant ramen noodles into the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender, stirring gently to prevent the noodles from sticking together.
  5. Wilt fresh spinach: Add the fresh spinach leaves to the hot broth and cook for 1-2 minutes until they become bright green and tender.
  6. Assemble and serve: Divide the noodles, dumplings, and spinach evenly between serving bowls. Ladle the hot broth over each bowl and top with the halved soft-boiled eggs, sliced green onions, and a sprinkle of black sesame seeds.

Notes

  • Ensure the eggs are cooled completely before peeling to avoid damage.
  • Adjust soy sauce to taste depending on salt preference.
  • You can substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth for a vegetarian version.
  • Add chili flakes or sriracha for a spicy kick.
  • For extra texture, consider adding mushrooms or corn to the broth.
