Tender pork belly, chewy ramen noodles, crisp scallions, and a glossy soy-sesame broth make every spoonful of this bowl feel layered and satisfying. A drizzle of Ramen Infused Olive Oil Blend brings shiitake, garlic, onion, black pepper, and lemon peel into the finish so the bowl lands with savory depth and a bright lift. It’s the kind of dinner that works for a cozy weeknight, a cold-weather comfort meal, or a laid-back dinner with friends, and it absolutely earns a second helping.

Spicy Pork Belly Ramen Finished with Ramen Olive Oil Blend
Ingredients
- 8 ounces ramen noodles
- 1 pound pork belly sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups water
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon mirin
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Ramen Infused Olive Oil Blend
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
- 1 small yellow onion thinly sliced
- 4 ounces shiitake mushrooms sliced
- 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
- 2 scallions thinly sliced
- 2 soft-boiled eggs halved
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 1 sheet nori cut into strips
Method
- 1. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and cook the ramen noodles according to package directions until just tender. Drain, rinse briefly, and set aside.
- 2. Heat the neutral oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the pork belly and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and the fat has rendered, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- 3. Add the onion and shiitake mushrooms to the pot and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 4. Pour in the chicken broth, water, soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, and chili garlic sauce. Bring the broth to a gentle simmer and cook for 15 to 20 minutes so the flavors come together.
- 5. Divide the noodles between 4 bowls. Ladle the hot broth and pork belly over the noodles.
- 6. Finish each bowl with Ramen Infused Olive Oil Blend, scallions, soft-boiled egg halves, sesame seeds, and nori strips. Serve right away while hot.
Notes

Let us know how it was!Recipe Tips
For the best texture, sear the pork belly until the edges are deeply browned before slicing it into the bowl. Keep the broth at a gentle simmer so the ramen noodles stay springy instead of softening too far.
Serving Suggestions
Top each bowl with a soft-boiled egg, sesame seeds, sliced scallions, and a little chili crisp if you want more heat. Serve with extra broth on the side for anyone who likes a fuller bowl.
Storage
Store the broth, pork belly, and noodles separately in airtight containers. Reheat the broth and pork belly gently, then add freshly cooked noodles before serving for the best bowl texture.
Variations
Swap the pork belly for sliced pork shoulder if you want a leaner bowl, or add sautéed mushrooms and baby spinach for extra vegetable depth. You can also stir a little more chili oil into the broth for a hotter finish.
