3. Cook the Ramen: Cook ramen noodles according to the instructions. Drain and set aside.

4. Make the Ramen Broth: Combine chicken broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, and miso paste in a separate pot. Simmer for 10 minutes to combine the flavors.

Nutritional Information:-

Chashu Ramen is rich in protein from the pork and eggs, and the broth is packed with flavors without being too calorie-dense. For a lighter version, use less pork belly and opt for leaner cuts of meat.
