Ingredients
  • 1 tsp neutral-flavored oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup sliced shiitake mushrooms
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp tamari (or any low-sodium soy sauce)
  • 1/4 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 dried ramen square
Toppings
  • Shredded carrot
  • Fresh cilantro
  • Black sesame seeds
  • 1/2 cup cubed baked tofu
Instructions
  1. Turn on instant pot. Press "Sauté" mode and wait to heat up completely. Add oil and garlic. Add a pinch of salt. Sauté for 1 min. until just turning golden. Add onion and cook until translucent. Add mushrooms and cook for an additional 3 min. until soft and they have lost some of their moisture. 

  2. Switch settings to 'soup/broth' and cook for 20 min. Add broth, tamari, and red bell pepper. Seal lid and let cook on 'high-pressure' setting for 10 min. Release pressure naturally for 5 min. then manually release the rest. Open and add noodles. Seal lid and cook for 3 min. more. 

  3. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 min. Then manually release the rest. Serve with shredded carrot, fresh cilantro, black sesame seeds, and baked tofu. 

(Optional) Baked Tofu
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake tofu cubes for 30 min. until crispy.

    A bit confusing! Set Soup/Broth for 20 minutes, then cook for 10 minutes? Plus my ramen only takes three minutes, so had to change it up a bit.
    Great recipe otherwise! Thx!
