Ingredients
2 packs ramen noodles (fresh or frozen preferred)
8 oz ribeye or sirloin steak
1 tablespoon gochujang
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey
1 tablespoon oil (for searing)
1/2 cup onion, sliced
1/2 cup carrots, julienned
1/2 cup bell pepper, sliced
1/2 cup kimchi (optional)
2 green onions, chopped
2 eggs, soft-boiled (optional)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Sriracha
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
1. In a bowl, mix gochujang, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and brown sugar or honey. Add the steak and marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high. Sear the marinated steak 2–3 minutes per side. Rest and slice thinly.
3. Mix mayonnaise, Sriracha, and rice vinegar in a small bowl to make the creamy sauce. Set aside.
4. In the same skillet, sauté onions, carrots, and bell peppers until caramelized. Add kimchi if using and cook 1 more minute.
5. Boil ramen noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
6. Divide noodles into bowls. Add vegetables, sliced beef, and soft-boiled egg halves.
7. Spoon creamy sauce over the center, sprinkle green onions and sesame seeds, and serve hot.
Notes
For maximum flavor, allow steak to marinate at least 1 hour.
Use fresh ramen noodles for the best texture. Avoid overcooking.
Add kimchi last to preserve its crunch and tang.
