Vegan Ramen with a Boiled Egg
Last year for Easter I made Vegan Crème eggs, which went down a storm! Everyone loved them, and to date they are one of my websites more popular pages. Now you know your girl loves a theme, so I stuck with eggs for Easter. I was also inspired by Gaz Oakley's vegan dish for Wagamama that contains a vegan egg. I really liked Gaz's dish, but couldn't keep from being a tiny bit disappointed the egg was sweet (coconut and mango) rather than imitating a real savoury egg.
This recipe is for the ramen, if you want the recipe for the vegan egg click here!
This ramen recipe is super simple and you can adjust it to whatever vegetables you happen to have in. It's also pretty quick to make, I make this regularly for a week night dinner, minus the vegan egg which is the real showstopper!
