Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups Chicken stock
  • 200 g Spam thinly sliced
  • 4 Cocktail Frankfurt sausages thinly & diagonally sliced
  • 250 g Tofu sliced about 1.5cm thickness
  • 200 g Enoki mushrooms base stem removed & stems separated
  • 200 g King oyster mushrooms thinly sliced length ways
  • 100 g Shiitake mushroom thinly sliced
  • ½ cup Kimchi ripened bite sized
  • 110 g Instant ramen noodles
  • 50 g Korean rice cakes for soup soaked in cold water for 15 mins if it was frozen
  • 30 g Green onion thinly & diagonally sliced
  • 1 to 2 slice Cheese

Sauce (Mix these in a small bowl)

  • 2 Tbsp Korean chili flakes Gochugaru
  • 2 Tbsp Mirin
  • 1 Tbsp Light soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Garlic minced
  • ½ Tbsp Sugar
  • ½ Tbsp Korean chilli paste Gochujang

Instructions
 

  • Assemble the main ingredients (except for instant ramen noodles, rice cakes, green onion and cheese) in a shallow pot.
  • Add the sauce in the middle. Pour the stock in the corner of the pot.
  • Close the lid and boil it on medium high heat until the stock starts to boil (about 8 mins).
  • Add the remaining ingredients – instant ramen noodles, rice cakes, green onion and cheese on top of the pot and boil uncovered until the noodles are cooked (about 2 to 3 mins). Reduce the heat to low (if you’re cooking on a portable burner and sharing the food at the dinning table).
  • Start dishing out soup, protein and vegetables onto your own soup bowl. Serve with steamed rice (& with other Korean side dishes).
  • DONE!
