Ramen
6 servings
120 minutes
A simple and fairly quick recipe for ramen - usually the broth for it is cooked much longer. Ramen became very popular in Japan after the war: there was a shortage of food, and the Americans supplied cheap wheat noodles in large quantities. Now this dish exists in a huge number of variations: with pieces of meat, and with minced meat, and purely vegetable. Here - with pork belly.
