To buy
- 2 handfuls spinach or bok choy
- 1 lime
From your shelf
- 1 package (3 oz) lime shrimp flavor ramen noodle soup, lime shrimp (Maruchan)
Staples
- 3 cups water
- pinch salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 clove garlic
- Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a pot. Crack 2 eggs into a small cup and slide them gently into the simmering water; they will poach in about 3 minutes. While they cook, mince 1 clove of garlic.
- When the eggs are almost set, add the ramen block and the seasoning packet to the pot and stir to break the noodles. Cook for 2 minutes until the noodles soften.
- Add 2 handfuls of spinach or bok choy and the minced garlic; stir and simmer for 1 minute until the greens wilt.
- Divide the noodles and broth between two bowls. Top each with one poached egg. Squeeze half a lime over each bowl and taste for salt; add a pinch if needed. Serve at once.
Note Swap the greens for sliced mushrooms or a handful of shredded cabbage if you have them. Leftovers keep in the fridge for one day but the noodles soften; reheat gently with a splash of water. Serve with hot sauce on the side.
