This Vegan Spicy Creamy Ramen is the homemade ramen that doesn’t take hours to make. It is packed with so much flavor and loaded up with noodles, steamed broccoli, baby bok choy, buttered corn, scallions, and a drizzle of chili crisp. This easy to make ramen is my take on tantanmen ramen!

Instructions
- Heat neutral oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the shallot, garlic and ginger. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the kimich paste or red curry paste, and cook for 1 minute. Add the broth, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, tahini and coconut milk. Bring to a boil and stir until everything is incorporated. Lower heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes.
- Add chili crisp or chili oil. Taste the soup and additional spices to your liking. If you like it more savory, add soy sauce. If you like it more spice, add chili paste.
- While the soup is finishing, bring a separate pot of water to a boil and add the ramen noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until tender, then drain.
- If you want the soup to be smooth, pour it through a sieve. When ready to enjoy, add ramen noodles to each bowl, ladle soup over the noodles, then top with any of your favorite toppings ( steamed broccoli, scallions, buttered corn, baby bok choy, mushroom). You drizzle some chili oil or sriracha.
Love this recipe! Best ramen ever
Oh. My. God! These are perfect! The perfect Umami flavor! I used peanut butter instead of tahini because I prefer the flavor and it was perfect! I cooked the noodles in the sauce so it made it creamier and they soaked up the sauce more.
Yay, so happy to hear that you enjoyed the recipe! 🙂
