peanut butter ramen

Homemade Peanut Butter Ramen in a flavorful vegan broth topped with delicious crispy Korean tofu. Gluten-free adaptable.

Peanut Butter Ramen

firm tofu

cornstarch

salt and black pepper

gochujang – taste your gochujang

soy sauce

maple syrup

garlic

ginger

gochujang paste- more or less to taste

peanut butter, natural unsweetened

white miso paste

vegetable broth

sesame oil

rice vinegar

noodles of your choice- ramen noodles, rice noodles, soba noodles

Optional Garnishes: Scallions

Make the Crispy Korean Tofu

Using your hands, break tofu apart into roughly one-inch pieces. (The ragged edges help crisp up the tofu and soak up more sauce.) Place a clean dish towel or paper towel on a plate and spread tofu out in one layer on the towel to absorb excess moisture. 

In a small bowl mix together gochujang paste, soy sauce, and maple syrup. Set aside.

Remove the towel from the tofu and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with cornstarch and toss to coat evenly.

Heat up a skillet to medium high, add 1-2 tablespoons oil to coat the pan. Fry the tofu in one layer: put it in the pan and leave it for about 5 minutes (don&#8217;t try to move it!) over medium heat until it develops a crust and naturally releases. Flip the pieces over and cook another 4-5 minutes. Stir the pieces around to get the sides of the tofu. Stir in the sauce, you can do this in a separate bowl or directly in the pan. Turn off the heat and set aside.

Make the Broth

Saute the garlic and ginger in oil for a minute or so, just until they become fragrant.  Stir in the gochujang paste, peanut butter, and white miso, mixing until combined. 

Add the veggie broth, sesame oil, and soy sauce, and whisk until smooth. Heat to a simmer. Add rice vinegar and maple syrup to the broth. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more spice or vinegar or soy if needed.

Boil the ramen noodles in a separate pot of water, to keep them from getting mushy and falling apart.

This was so delicious, very tasty and the whole family loved it. I will be making this again!!

This Peanut Miso Ramen comes together in just 20 minutes and is so filling and DELICIOUS!

Peanut Butter Miso Ramen

4-6 oz ramen noodles (uncooked)

baby bok choy (sliced in half lengthways)

peanut butter

miso paste

lite coconut milk

Optional for Garnish: chili oil, corn, sesame seeds, green onions, julienned carrots

Bring a small pot of water to a boil that’s enough to cook your noodles in. Once boiling, add in the noodles and bok choy if using. Cook according to package directions (I usually just cook the bok choy as long as the noodles but you can take them out early as desired). Drain and set aside

Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add in the ginger and garlic and saute for 2 minutes. Add in the peanut butter and miso paste. Slowly add in 2 tablespoons of the broth (or hot water). Mix to combine and let simmer for 1 minute.

Add in the coconut milk and veggie broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Mix in the soy sauce to taste (1-2 tablespoons depending on how salty you want it). Divide the broth, bok choy, and noodles evenly among 2 bowls. Top with toppings of choice and enjoy.

This peanut butter miso ramen is such a fun twist! I followed the recipe exactly but stirred in a spoonful of NoodleBomb ramen sauce at the end. It blended perfectly with the miso and peanut flavors, adding deep umami without extra salt. My family loved it—thanks for another great recipe!

Very easy and versatile! My husband and I loved it.

What if I can't find miso paste? Can I use miso broth instead of vegetable broth as a sub for not having miso paste? Thank you!

Thank you for sharing this recipe it was absolutely delicious.
