SoLaR's Chili Lamb Ramen Recipe



None of that instant ramen garbage. This is freshly prepared, southeast asian influenced, ramen with one of the best goddamn meats of all time. LAMB.

What you need

* 12 ounces ramen noodles ( I used some flat wheat noodles I found at an asian grocery store)
* small amount of vegetable oil
* 1/2 pound of lamb (I asked the dude for some lamb that would be good in a stew and he handed me some chunks which I would later cut up into reasonably sized pieces)
* 4 cups chicken broth/stock
* 3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
* 4 green onions chopped ~1/2 way up the stalk
* 1 diced thai chile (or you can substitute crushed red pepper flakes)
* A handful of chopped fresh mushroom caps of your choice ( I used some awesome Texas yellow cap mushrooms)
* 1/3 red onion peeled and sliced very thin
* 3 leaves of bok choy washed and sliced to reasonably sized pieces
** 2 small teaspoons sugar
** 1 tablespoon wine vinegar
** 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
** a dab of chili oil
** 3 tablespoons store-bought sweet chili sauce (not sriracha)
** 5 tables spoons fish sauce
** 1 teaspoon of oyster sauce (optional, only use if you have it)

What you gotta do

(1) Bring water to a boil in large pot. Add the ramen noodles when boiling and cook until al dente/just tender.
(2) Dump cooked noodles into strainer and rinse briefly with cold water. Set aside.
(3) Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit
(4) Put lamb pieces into oven-safe cooking pan or glass dish. Drizzle the raw lamb with a bit of vegetable oil and mix with hands to evenly coat. I coated with a few sprinkes of Chinese five-spice also.
(5) Put coated lamb pieces in oven for 10-12 minutes. Just make sure it looks edible by cutting the thickest piece open with a knife and checking.
(6) While lamb is cooking add the last 7 ingredients (have ** next to them) together in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Set aside.
(7) Add chicken broth, red onion, green onion, and garlic together in large pot. Bring to a boil. When it reaches a boil, add the mushrooms caps, chili pieces/flakes, and the previously mixed 7 ingredients and turn all the way down to a simmer or remove from heat entirely.
(8) Place a portion of noodles into a bowl and top with a small handful of bok choy and several lamb pieces.
(9) Using a ladle, spoon the broth mixture over the noodles, bok choy, and lamb.
(10) FEAST.
