What’s your favorite easy-ish Ramen recipe (that doesn’t take days)? I love Tonkotsu, but doing that for real takes forever.

    I call it “lazy lamen”:

    • Dice chicken thighs and season them with brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, vinegar.
    • Brown them in a pot with a bit of veg oil, without worrying too much about cooking them thoroughly.
    • Add chicken broth (or water). Add more seasoning as necessary. Perhaps some sesame oil.
    • Add vegs and noodles to the pot, depending on their cooking times. (For reference: sliced carrots, cabbage and 5min ramen noodles take roughly the same time to cook.)
    • Garnish with some chives, and enjoy.

    It won’t look fancy like those lamen pics that you see on the internet, but it has a great balance between being tasty, nutritious, practical and fast to prepare. That’s what makes it my favourite.
