Beef and Pork Ramen and Udon Miso Soup


STOCK:
1. Since the stock will be an integral part of this dish we have to prepare a lot of the stock.
2. In a stock pot add 2 large white onions (rough chop), 2 celery stalks (rough chop), 1 large carrot (cut in half), 2 stalks of leeks, 6 large Fresh Shiitake mushrooms and 2 liters of water.
3. Add salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
4. Before fully cooked remove some of the onions, leeks, Shiitake and carrots which we will use later
5. Add 1 cup dark soy sauce (Kikkoman), 3 tsp Dashinomoto, ½ cup brown sugar, 1 cup Yamasa Sennka (Sukiyaki base) and 1 cup yellow Miso.
6. Keep on a rolling boil to cook the other ingredients but once done keep on simmer.

Arrange in a bowl the following:
1. Ramen and Udon which have been warmed in boiling water then drained
2. Chopped green parts of Chinese lettuce (Ombok).
3. Slices of silken tofu.
4. Pieces of crabstick cut on the bias and Naruto (Japanese Rice Cake - the swirly thing in the pic).
5. Slices of the blanched vegetables (onions, leeks, Shiitake and carrots)
6. Fresh Enoki Mushrooms.
7. Cook beef and pork sukiyaki cuts in the broth for a few seconds before arranging them in the bowl.

Ladle in the stock just before serving and garnish with chopped spring onions and Japanese Spice mix.
