Veggie Ramen (instant)

Bring water to boil. Use 2 cups per pack (80g) of ramen to make it soupy.

Add salt as per taste. Note that this needs a bit more salt to balance the flavors. Adjust accordingly. Still better than instant flavor packs.

Add Ginger, Garlic, Peppercorns + any other spices you like.

sidenote: I don't like getting ginger/garlic pieces while eating, so I put them in tea infuser to take them out easily.

Add veggies you like -- cabbage, few carrots/green beans/corn etc.

Add mushrooms. This is what gives the main flavor.

Add few drops of chili oil. It has very unique flavor. You can also add few drops of sesame oil for extra flavor.

After boiling veggies for 10-12 mins, finally drop in ramen. It only needs 4-5 mins to fully cook. Check instructions on your packet.

Add chopped spring onions and (optional) egg soft boiled or fried + slightly runny. Enjoy it hot.
