Method
Preparation
- Boil the eggs: Bring a pot of water to boil, then carefully add the eggs. Cook for 6-7 minutes for perfect soft-boiled consistency. Chill them in an ice water bath to cool before peeling and halving.
- Simmer the broth: In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a gentle simmer. Mix in soy sauce and sesame oil, stirring to create a flavorful base.
Cooking
- Cook the dumplings: Toss your frozen dumplings directly into the simmering broth. Cook for 8-10 minutes until they float and are heated through.
- Add ramen noodles: Toss in instant ramen noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender. Stir gently to keep them from sticking.
- Incorporate spinach: Add fresh spinach to the pot. Let it sauté for 1-2 minutes until bright green and tender.
Serving
- Serve: Divide the noodles, dumplings, and spinach into bowls, ladle hot broth over each, and top with the halved soft-boiled eggs, sliced green onions, and a sprinkle of black sesame seeds.
Notes
If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge for up to 3 days, keeping the soup separate from the noodles to prevent sogginess. Reheat on the stovetop.
