Sriracha Ramen Noodle Soup
Spicy Ramen Noodles
It’s finally Fall! And that means you can find me taking comfort in fuzzy boots, soft sweaters, and GIANT bowls of spicy, slurpy soup. And although September is hardly the heart of the season, I say it’s never too early to start filling up our recipe boxes with easy, healthy, cozy soup recipes. I’ll hold off on the chili and stews for another month or so… but soup season? It starts NOW!
And we’re kicking off the season with this homemade ramen noodle soup! It’s ready in just 20 minutes. And it’s flavored with spicy sriracha sauce! It’s a insanely flavorful and a million times better than instant ramen noodles. Sure to become a hit with your family and friends!!!
Ramen Noodle Soup
This delightfully hearty noodle soup is made with dried ramen noodles, vegetable stock (but vegetable broth or even chicken broth could be subbed here), fresh veggies, dried herbs, and sriracha! It’s truly incredible.
For the packaged ramen noodles, you can use fresh ramen or the instant ramen noodle packs they sell at most grocery stores. Just be sure to discard the seasoning packet! We’re making our own seasoning and it’s so much better. Trust me!
The great thing about this comforting recipe is it’s SO simple to throw together! Even on a night where you don’t feel like cooking. The steps are so easy!
- Heat sesame oil, then add in onion, parsley, garlic, chopped tomato, and spices. Cook until softened and fragrant.
- Transfer ingredients to a blender for a quick whirl. Then scrape the mixture back into the pot and add some cold water and store-bought stock. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Add in a splash of sriracha hot sauce, soy sauce, and rice vinegar (optional, but I love the slight tang) and boil for a few more minutes. Finally, add in your ramen noodles and stir to combine. The noodles only need to cook for 2 to 3 minutes! So be sure to taste the broth BEFORE adding them in so you can adjusted the seasoning if need be. Soggy really noodles suck, so I’m just trying to save you from that.
- Remove pan from heat at once! Then divide the soup among bowls and top with green onion, cilantro, shredded carrots, beans sprouts, and/or a soft boiled egg.
When it comes to ramen topping, the options are really endless! So top it with whatever sounds good to you!!!
This spicy sriracha ramen noodle soup is truly best eaten right away! So I don’t suggest making a double batch unless you’re serving a crowd. That said, you could make the broth ahead of time and then heat up potions of the broth as needed. The broth will keep, stored in an airtight container, and in the fridge, for up to a week. I also think it’ll freeze fine for 2 months!

This was so delicious! I added mushrooms and chicken breast because my husband is very ill and needs Vitamin D and protein.

Still cooking but I’m the final stages. My spices garlic powder, celery salt seem to have settled on top of the broth instead of mixing in. Did anyone else have this happen?
