Comfort Food, Elevated — With Kanika’s Kitchen & Our Nourish Dinnerware

There is nothing quite like a steaming bowl of ramen to soothe the soul after a long day — especially when it comes together in just 15 minutes. This Spicy Chicken Ramen is creamy, comforting, and layered with bold flavours, made even more inviting when served in our elegant Nourish Dinner Set — Kanika’s personal favourite for presenting hearty meals with a touch of refined warmth.

Ingredients

For the Broth & Assembly:

• 6 cups chicken stock (or stock cubes & water)

• 2 cups unsweetened soy milk

• 4 instant ramen noodle cakes

• 4 baby bok choy, halved

• 1 cup baby spinach

• 2 soft-boiled eggs, halved

For the Spicy Chicken:

• 1 tbsp vegetable oil

• 300g chicken mince

• 3 garlic cloves, chopped

• 1 tsp grated ginger

• 2 tbsp spring onion, chopped (+ extra to garnish)

• 2 tbsp gochujang

• 1 tsp sambal oelek (optional)

• 1 tbsp soy sauce

• Toasted sesame seeds

For the Soup Flavouring Paste:

• ¼ cup smooth peanut butter

• 2 tbsp chilli oil

• 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar

• 2 tbsp soy sauce

 

Method

1. Prepare the Broth:

In a large pot, bring the chicken stock and soy milk to a gentle simmer.

2. Cook the Spicy Chicken:

In a hot wok, add vegetable oil and the chicken mince. Let it sear undisturbed for 2 minutes to brown. Stir in garlic, ginger, and spring onion. Add gochujang and sambal oelek (if using), then soy sauce. Stir-fry until aromatic and cooked through. Set aside.

3. Make the Flavouring Paste:

In a small bowl, whisk peanut butter, chilli oil, rice wine vinegar and soy sauce until smooth.

4. Assemble:

Bring a separate pot of water to boil. Cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Blanch the baby bok choy for about a minute until tender.

5. Serve:

Divide the flavouring paste between four bowls. Top with noodles and bok choy, then ladle over the hot broth and stir gently. Add the spicy chicken, soft-boiled egg halves, extra spring onion and toasted sesame seeds. Finish with an extra drizzle of chilli oil for a spicy kick.
