Ingredients
- 1 carton / 900 ml
- sodium-reduced chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp / 30 ml
- sodium-reduced soy sauce or tamari (or to taste)
- 1 tbsp / 15 ml
- each grated ginger and garlic
- 3 cup / 750 ml
- baby bok choy, quartered
- 1 cup / 250 ml
- lightly packed shaved or grated carrot (*see tip)
- 2
- dry ramen noodles (70 to 85 grams each, discard seasoning packet if any)
- 2 to 4
- Naturegg Omega 3 Eggs (approx., at least 1 per serving)
- 2
- green onions, sliced
- 1 tbsp / 15 ml
- vegetable oil
- Optional garnishes and seasonings such as toasted sesame seeds or oil, hot sauce, chopped herbs or additional green onion (to taste)
Directions
Combine broth, soy sauce, ginger and garlic in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium.
Add bok choy and carrot and simmer for 2 minutes. Add ramen and simmer for 4 minutes or until tender. Remove from the heat and stir in green onions. Let stand while cooking the eggs.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Add eggs and fry until whites are set but yolks are still runny (or cook to preferred doneness).
Divide noodles, vegetables and broth between bowls. Top each bowl with 1 fried egg (or 2 for hungry eaters). Serve bowls topped with seasonings and garnishes as preferred.
Tips
Use a vegetable peeler to shave the carrot.
Add in extra vegetables you have on hand, such as thinly sliced peppers, shredded cabbage, chopped broccoli, sugar snap peas or thinly sliced celery.
Replace the fried egg with poached or hard/soft cooked eggs, as preferred.
As a shortcut, you can replace the plain broth, soy, garlic and ginger with a pre-flavoured Asian style broth such as ramen or pho broth. To reduce sodium further, you can use no salt added broth.
Naturegg Omega 3
A nutritionally enhanced egg that offers even more essential nutrients.

When separating eggs, squeeze an empty plastic bottle and hold over the yolk, release some of the pressure and the yolk will suck into the bottle.
