Hangover-Curing Ramen
The Ultimate Hangover Cure! Radish, Scallion, Garlic Ramen for When You Need a Refreshing Boost
Whip up a quick and incredibly refreshing hangover soup with just a few ingredients from your pantry! This ramen is designed to be deeply satisfying and restorative.
Ingredients- 1 packet of Odon-tong noodles (thick ramen noodles)
- 100g radish
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 3 Tbsp chopped scallions
- 3 Tbsp cooking oil
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp red pepper flakes (gochugaru)
- 1 handful dried seaweed (miyeok)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Measurement spoons are based on a standard 8cc Korean soup spoon. First, slice the 100g of radish into approximately 0.5cm thick pieces. (Tip: Watching recipe videos greatly supports new recipe creation. Visit ‘Duyuri Ne’ on YouTube for more and the latest recipes!)
Step 2
Chop the scallions into 3 tablespoons worth, aiming for about 0.5cm thickness. Using the white parts of the scallions will yield a richer flavor.
Step 3
Heat 3 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the chopped scallions and minced garlic, sautéing until the garlic turns golden brown and fragrant. Once the garlic is fragrant, add the sliced radish and stir-fry over high heat for 1 minute.
Step 4
In an empty spot of the pot, add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and let it sizzle for about 5 seconds, as if caramelizing slightly. Then, stir the ingredients together with the soy sauce 2-3 times to ensure even coating.
Step 5
Once the soy sauce is well incorporated into the ingredients, reduce the heat to medium. Add the red pepper flakes, the ramen’s vegetable mix packet, and the ramen soup base.
Step 6
Stir-fry the ingredients over medium heat for about 20-30 seconds. Then, pour in 650cc of water (about 100cc more than the standard ramen amount).
Step 7
After adding the water, toss in about one handful of dried seaweed. The seaweed will add a lovely texture and subtle flavor to the broth.
Step 8
Once the water comes to a rolling boil, add the ramen noodles. Cook until the noodles are tender, typically around 3-4 minutes. Adjust cooking time to your preferred noodle texture.
Step 9
Your refreshing and spicy hangover ramen is now complete! Enjoy this wonderfully warming and invigorating soup. (Pro tip: For an extra kick of flavor, add 1-2 pinches of black pepper to your liking just before serving. It makes a delicious difference!)
