Ingredients

Ramen

  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp syrup (eg maple or agave) or brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp chilli flakes (optional)
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 200g/7 oz chopped frozen broccoli
  • 200g/7 oz frozen mixed vegetables (eg peas, sweetcorn, carrots)
  • 400g/14 oz vegan instant ramen noodles (lots of them are vegan – check the packet. Use gluten-free if needed)

Instructions

Ramen

  1. Using a large saucepan, bring the water to the boil and add the miso, vinegar, syrup, chilli flakes, garlic, broccoli and mixed vegetables. Boil for 4 minutes.
  2. Add the noodles and flavour pouches to the pan and cook according to the instructions on the packet (around 4 minutes – don’t cook for longer than 4 minutes or the vegetables will be mushy).

Extras

  1. While the ramen is cooking, fry the tofu in a large wok/frying pan in a little oil until golden with either a little salt or soy sauce.
  2. Remove the tofu from the pan, increase the heat, add a little more oil then add the pak choi. Flash fry until slightly charred.

We create vital resources to help educate everyone – vegan veterans, novices and the v-curious alike – about vegan food, health and nutrition, as well as the plight of farmed animals and the devastating environmental impact of farming.

Through this work we have helped thousands of people discover veganism, but we want to reach millions more! We rely entirely on donations as we don’t get any government funding. If you already support us, thank you from the bottom of our hearts – you are really making a difference!
