Ingredients
 
 

  • ⅔ cup Japanese sesame dressing goma dressing
  • 2 blocks ramen noodles 2 oz each
  • ¾ cup julienned carrot
  • ¾ cup shredded red cabbage
  • 2 scallions sliced
  • 1 cup spring mix
  • 2 soft-boiled eggs
  • Microgreens for garnish
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the ramen noodles according to package directions until just tender.
  • Drain the noodles and rinse under cold water to remove excess starch. Chill in an ice bath until firm and cold. Drain well.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cooled noodles, carrot, red cabbage, scallions, and cilantro.
  • Pour in the Japanese sesame dressing and toss until evenly coated.
  • Divide the spring mix among serving bowls. Then divide the noodle salad and place on the spring mix. Top with halved soft-boiled eggs and garnish with microgreens and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

Notes

Note
  • If you’re using instant ramen noodles with soup, discard the seasoning packets. Only use the noodles. Save the packet for other uses, like fried rice or making soup.
  • Rinsing the noodles helps stop the cooking and remove the starch, keeping them fresh and springy.
  • Add the vegetables you like! Cucumber, edamame, or avocado for extra texture.
