Being that we’ve just wrapped up Hanukkah, should you find yourself needing a break from all the latkes and pastries, I’ve provided the following low carb/keto version of spicy vegetarian ramen.
Happy holidays and I hope you enjoy my recipe.
Be sure to comment with your alterations and feedback, I’m a ramen virgin so by no means did I have any idea what I was doing! 😆
You will need:
1 Vegetarian Vegetable bullion cube (I used Knorr)
5 oz of shiitake mushrooms
1 8oz bag of tofu shirataki spaghetti shaped noodle substitute
1/2 of a 14oz jar of spicy kimchi (I used King’s)
5 or more* peeled and diced cipolline onions (I used Melissa’s, pre peeled)
*these have the highest carb content at 8g per half cup, according to MyFitnessPal.
Directions:
The tofu noodles come out of their bag pretty pungent so you may want to prepare as instructed by boiling them in water for 3 min or microwaving for one min, after thoroughly washing them.
After starting the noodles, I sautéed the onions and mushrooms in a large pan using a bit of olive oil, adding in the kimchi last. After about 10 minutes of sautéing on medium heat, I added two cups of boiling water with the bullion cube.
Once the noodles were done, I drained them before mixing them into the rest of the ingredients and leaving it all to simmer on low for about 6 minutes.
Top it off with a hard boiled egg and enjoy!!
