A rich, umami-packed ramen made with hearty mushrooms, flavorful broth, and chewy noodles. This dish is a perfect balance of comfort and nourishment, making it an ideal meal for any time of the year. The deep flavors of mushrooms, combined with aromatic seasonings, create a satisfying bowl of ramen that rivals restaurant-quality versions.

Origin Mushroom Ramen

Mushroom ramen is inspired by traditional Japanese ramen, which has its roots in Chinese noodle soups. Over the years, ramen has evolved into a staple of Japanese cuisine, with countless variations, including plant-based versions like this one. Mushrooms add an earthy depth to the broth, making it a fantastic alternative to meat-based ramen.

What I Love About This Recipe

This mushroom ramen is not only incredibly flavorful but also quick to make. The umami-rich broth, enhanced by miso and soy sauce, gives it a deep, complex taste. Plus, it’s customizable—add your favorite vegetables, tofu, or even a soft-boiled egg for extra richness.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole carp (about 1.5–2 lbs), cleaned and scaled

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (or lime/orange juice)

Directions

  • Prepare the Fish:
    Rinse the carp thoroughly and pat it dry with a paper towel.

  • Make the Citrus Sauce:
    In the same pan, add garlic, ginger, and chili (if using). Sauté for 1 minute.
    Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and the remaining lemon juice. Stir well.
    Mix cornstarch with 2 tbsp water and add it to the sauce to thicken. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Combine & Serve:
    Pour the citrus sauce over the fried fish.
    Garnish with orange slices, fresh cilantro, or green onions.
    Serve hot with steamed rice or stir-fried vegetables.

Notes
