Instructions

1. Begin by soft-boiling the eggs. Place them in boiling water for 6-7 minutes, then transfer them to an ice bath. Once cooled, peel and set aside.
2. Cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
3. In a large skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the ground pork, garlic, and ginger. Cook until the pork is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Stir in the soy sauce and chili garlic sauce, mixing thoroughly to coat the pork.
5. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat and let cook for 10 minutes to meld the flavors.
6. Divide the cooked ramen noodles between two bowls. Ladle the broth and ground pork mixture over the noodles.
7. Top each bowl with sliced green onions, fresh bean sprouts, halved soft-boiled eggs, and a sprinkle of black sesame seeds.
8. Serve hot, savoring the spicy, savory goodness!
