Chef's Tips
- 💡For extra flavor, lightly toast the ham slice in a dry pan for 30 seconds per side before adding to the ramen.
- 💡If you have a little more time, a soft-boiled egg with a jammy yolk makes this ramen even more luxurious.
- 💡Feel free to customize with a dash of soy sauce or a pinch of white pepper to taste after drizzling the oil.
