Ingredients (Serves 2–3):
2 tbsp peanut butter (or PBfit powder reconstituted with water)
1 tin light coconut milk
2–3 garlic cloves, peeled
1 thumb sized piece fresh ginger, peeled
2 tbsp soy sauce (or to taste)
Pinch of chili flakes (optional, for gentle heat)
250ml vegetable stock
150–200g ramen noodles
1 batch crispy tofu – See recipe for crispy tofu linked on blog
Optional toppings:
Chopped spring onions/ chives
Sesame seeds
Lime wedges
Steamed greens (bok choy, spinach)
Shredded carrots, sliced cucumber, or bean sprouts
Chilli oil or sriracha
Method
Prepared the tofu (see linked recipe)
In a high-powered blender, combine the peanut butter, coconut milk, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and chili flakes. Blend until completely smooth.
Pour the blended mixture into a saucepan, add the vegetable stock and stir to combine.
Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Once the broth is simmering, add the ramen noodles directly into the pot. Cook according to package instructions (usually 4–5 minutes), stirring occasionally to separate noodles and avoid sticking.
Transfer the noodles into bowls, and ladle the the broth over.
Top with crispy tofu and your favourite garnishes.
Let this ramen be your new kitchen ritual — rich in flavour, full of comfort, and endlessly customisable. Don’t forget to check out my crispy tofu recipe for that golden, protein-packed topper that takes this bowl from great to goddess-tier.
