easy garlic miso noodle soup quick lunch dinner meal for one

One of the most important condiments for me, and one that I’ll constantly keep stocked in my fridge is definitely miso. Some times when I feel like a dish requires a little bit more umami added to it, miso is the answer.

It’s also an ingredient I use in a lot of my quick and easy noodle recipes. These include:

  • Chili Oil Miso Udon (15 minutes)
  • 20-Minutes Spicy Creamy Miso Ramen (Vegan)

Regardless of the weather, I’m always up for a hot bowl of noodle soup. And based on the poll I made on my Instagram stories, a lot of you feel the same. So here’s a simple and delicious miso noodle recipe that you can pull together in just 15 minutes!

Garlic Miso Noodle Soup

From this recipe, you’ll get a rich umami and aromatic broth made from a mix of garlic, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, and miso paste.

And just like any other noodle recipe, you are free to customize the dish with your choice of protein, veggies or toppings.

Ingredients

  • Minced garlic
  • Green onions
  • Gochugaru/chili flakes (optional): To make this hearty bowl of soup spicy, I add in some gochugaru to the mix. However, the soup is still just as good without it!
  • Sugar
  • Neutral oil
  • Oyster sauce
  • Light soy sauce
  • Rice vinegar
  • Water
  • Miso paste: I used red miso paste, but it has a strong taste which might not be to your preference. Feel free to use milder versions like yellow or white miso. 

Other ingredients

  • Noodles: Use any noodles of your choice.
  • Hard boiled/jammy egg: Here’s a recipe on how to make a jammy egg.
  • Sesame seed
  • Chili oil (optional): I love incorporating chili oil most of the time (bring on the spice!). I used my Homemade Chili Oil, but if you’re looking for a store-bought option, I recommend the one by Lao Gan Ma.

(For full ingredient measurements, please proceed to the recipe card below.)

Instructions

  1. Boil noodles until cooked and drain. Set aside for later.
  2. In a bowl, add garlic, green onions, gochugaru and sugar.
  3. Heat up the neutral oil on high in a saucepan until it’s smoking (1-2 minutes). Pour the oil into the bowl and stir. Add light soy sauce, oyster sauce and rice vinegar and stir until well combined.
  4. Pour in hot water into the same bowl. Add miso paste and stir until dissolves (see notes).
  5. Add noodles and toppings of your choice (I used egg, green onions, chili oil and sesame seed). Enjoy!

Notes for Garlic Miso Noodle Soup

  • Seasonings: Please adjust seasonings to taste.
  • Sauté option: Alternatively, you can definitely cook this over a stovetop instead. Just sauté the garlic, green onions, gochugaru and sugar in a little bit of oil for 30-60 seconds over medium heat. Add the sauces and stir before pouring in water. Once it starts simmering, add the miso paste and stir until it dissolves. 
  • Maintain probiotics in miso paste: Make sure to add miso paste into hot and not boiling water or it will kill the probiotic in the paste and getting rid of the health benefits that miso offers.
  • Sieving bits of soybean: I added the miso paste into a sieve and lowered that into the hot water and stirred. This way of dissolving the miso paste prevents the bits of soybean from the miso paste to be added to the broth/soup. If you don’t mind it, feel free to just add the miso paste directly into the hot water.
  • Mason jar packed lunch option: For mason jar noodle soup packed lunch, make the spicy garlic mixture then add all the other ingredients including cooked noodles and except for the hot water. Once you’re ready to eat, just pour in hot water and shake/stir.

The best pizza in the city where pizza was invente The best pizza in the city where pizza was invented @farahjeats 🍕 
📍Pizzeria Da Michele, Naples, Italy 
📍 Pizzeria D’angeli, Naples, Italy
We got pizza from one of the oldest pizzerias in Naples, Italy and it didn’t disappoint. We got there right when it opened and there was already a line. We ended up getting the pizzas to-go and ate it on the hood of our rental car. Each box of pizza was only €5 and we got every item on the menu (it was only a 4 item menu anyway 😂). While waiting in line, the smell of the wood fired pizza was sooo good we were so hungry by the time we got our orders. We got pizzas from across the street too just to compare. There was no line at that restaurant and you could easily get a table. It was a little bit more expensive per pizza but still affordable. Both pizzas were delicious! Still dreaming about it till this day 🥲
Fun fact: Eat, Pray, Love was filmed at Pizzeria Da Michele!

Save and share this flavorful and delicious recipe!
Ending my Ramadan series with one of the best dishes. This is a dish that’s traditionally served during Eid/Raya in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. Every family usually has their own version of this. It’s usually served with nasi impit (cubed rice), lemang or pulut kuning (turmeric glutinous rice) but also just as good with white rice. 
Making this is a truly a labor of love especially when you make big batches. It can take hours! Families will cook this the night before Eid so the dish will be ready in time for the big celebration. The whole house will usually smell like rendang when this is made and honestly, one of the best smells that reminds me of such great and fond memories. 
This month just flew by— thanks so much for tuning in. I’ll be back with my usual twice a week recipes starting next week 💛
