Keto pork belly ramen soup. Even though I love pork belly ramen, I'm not crazy about soggy pork belly. I want it to be crispy on the edges! In this pork belly ramen recipe, I use homemade ramen noodles (optional), and my super simple Oven Roasted Crispy Pork Belly that's crisped up just before adding to the soup.
I love a nice steamy bowl of ramen, and just because I can't eat traditional noodles doesn't mean I can't re-create a keto-friendly version with veggie noodles.
For me, the best part about ramen is the toppings, especially the soft-cooked egg added just before serving.
Traditional ramen: dried seaweed strips, bean sprouts, corn.

This is my FIRST TIME making red-braised pork belly and it WAS keto-friendly. Traditional recipe requires the pork belly to be cooked in melted sugar. Pork belly ramen I decided to use pork belly because I just can't get over how unctuous and decadent it feels to eat generous slices of it. I first roasted the belly to create some depth and flavor and then removed the bones and cooked them in chicken stock (another cheat) with garlic, ginger, spring onions, soy sauce, fish sauce and a few. There are four main types of ramen broth: shio (salt), shoyu (soy sauce), miso (miso paste) and tonkotsu (pork bone broth).
