Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 packs OTOKI Cheesy Ramen - Spicy Chili & Cheddar
- 8 oz Ground pork 20-30% fat preferred
- 1 cup Green cabbage thinly sliced
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1-2 tbsp Chili crisp
- 1 tsp Soy Sauce
- 2 cup Chicken stock
Toppings
- Sliced scallions
- Sesame seeds
Instructions
Render the Pork
- Heat a wide skillet over medium-high. Add ground pork in a single layer and let it sit undisturbed 2–3 minutes until the bottom darkens and caramelizes. Break apart and continue cooking until most pieces have crispy, caramelized edges, 3–4 more minutes.
Build the Base
- Add cabbage and garlic. Toss for 30 seconds until the cabbage just starts to soften.
- Add soy sauce, chili crisp, and the cheese powder packet from the OTOKI pack (reserve the hot sauce packet for finishing). Stir until everything is fully incorporated and coated in the cheese powder.
Cook the Noodles
- Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the noodles and press them down into the liquid. Reduce, tossing occasionally, until the noodles are fully cooked and the sauce is thick and clingy, 3–4 minutes. Add a splash more broth or water if it tightens before the noodles are ready.
Finish and Plate
- Stir in scallions and the OTOKI hot sauce. Finish with sesame seeds and additional chili crisp if desired.
