Soba Noodle Seafood Ramen

(3)
"This is the perfect dish to feel comforted and cosy on those cold winter nights as it feels like a big warm hug in a bowl! There is a beautiful mix of flavours from the spicy sambal chili paste, rich buttery miso and salty brine from the pipi’s. This dish was created with Goolwa Pipi Co Ready to Serve Pipi’s that can be found in Australia."

Broth

Method

  • Step 1

    In a large pot on a low heat, combine the shallot, olive oil and sesame oil and fry for 2 minutes once the pan starts sizzling. Stir occasionally to ensure the shallot does not burn.

  • Step 2

    On the same heat and in the same pot, add your ginger, miso paste, butter and sambal chili paste and fry for a further 2 minutes until a deep red and rich aromatic paste forms. Stir the paste occasionally to ensure it does not burn. Add the chicken stock, pipi juices and fish sauce to the pot and bring to the boil. Once your broth is boiling turn the heat right down and leave to simmer for 20 minutes with the lid on.

Soup

  • Step 1

    While your broth is cooking prepare the ingredients for the soup. Finely dice the spring onions to your liking.

  • Step 2

    In a small pot, boil your eggs for 7 minutes then immediately place into an ice bath for several minutes. Peel away the shell, cut in half and set to the side.

  • Step 3

    In a medium sized pot, cook your soba noodles in heavily salted boiling hot water for 4 minutes. Drain the noodles and place into individual bowls for when serving.

  • Step 4

    Place your eggs, seaweed, a sprinkling of spring onions, sesame seeds and chili flakes and the pipis onto the noodles. Pour the piping hot broth all over. You will see the pipi shells begin to open. Serve immediately and enjoy!
