Steps

1

Slice the leek lengthwise, then cut into thick pieces as shown in the photo.
2

Add all ingredients marked with ○ (ground pork, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, miso, doubanjiang, leek) to a pot. Sauté until the pork is cooked through.
Sautéing brings out a savory aroma and depth to the soup.
3

This is what it should look like after sautéing.
4

Add the water and all ingredients marked with ● (chicken bouillon, mentsuyu, salt, sugar, chili oil, pepper, sesame seeds) to the pot. Bring to a boil, then simmer for about 5 minutes. Your restaurant-style miso ramen soup is ready!
5

Serve with ramen noodles and your favorite toppings.
6

Don’t forget the butter! It’s a must—add a pat of butter on top for extra richness.
7

The depth and umami are amazing! You won’t believe you made this so easily at home.
My husband even said, “It’s better than at a restaurant!”
