AVATAR RAMEN BOWL RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil and olive oil in a medium-large saucepan over moderate heat (see notes). Add garlic and ginger, and simmer until fragrant. Do not brown the garlic.
• Add the carrots and mushrooms, and simmer until they soften, about a minute, stirring frequently.
• Add the broth, Sriracha sauce, rice vinegar, and soy sauce. Stir, and bring to a simmer; let it go for about five minutes. Taste, and adjust heat and taste.
• While the broth simmers, cook the Ramen noodles in a separate pot as per the package's instructions.
• Once the noodles are tender, drain and rinse under cool water, place into a soup bowl, and set aside.
• When the soup is ready, spoon the broth over the noodles. Allow to cool. At this point, make the soft-boiled egg if garnishing with one, and add the rest of the toppings to serve.

Steps:

• Combine water, garlic, ginger, and onion in a large stock pot and bring broth base to a simmer. Reduce heat to maintain an easy simmer for 40 minutes.
• While broth simmers, fill a saucepan with water. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Lower eggs into the water 1 at a time. Cook 7 minutes for barely set yolks. Remove eggs from hot water, run under cold water until cool, and peel. Halve eggs lengthwise, place on a plate, and season with salt and pepper.
• Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil in preparation for cooking noodles. Reduce heat to a simmer.
• Use a slotted spoon or long-handled strainer to remove garlic, ginger, and onion from the broth in the stock pot after it has simmered 40 minutes. Discard vegetables. Add soy sauce, sake, chile sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and salt and stir well. Cover stock pot loosely and simmer 10 to 20 minutes more.
• Return simmering water to a boil. Add noodles and return to a boil. Cook noodles uncovered, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite, 1 to 3 minutes. Drain and divide noodles between 4 large bowls.
• Add shrimp and scallops to the simmering broth. Cook until opaque, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Ladle finished broth into bowls to barely cover noodles. Add equal amounts of shrimp and 1 scallop to the center of each bowl. Place a portion of bean sprouts on the side of each bowl. Place 2 soft-boiled egg halves, yolks up, resting on noodles in each bowl; keep eggs above the broth. Garnish each bowl with scallions.
