  1. 1

    Fill a small pot halfway with water. Bring it to a boil; add the egg and cook in the boiling water for 15 minutes. Drain. Run cold water over the egg and set it aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Pour sesame oil into a large skillet. Lay the pork slices in the oil. Top the pork with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds, 1/2 of the basil, and 1/2 of the sage. Flip and top the pork with these remaining ingredients: 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds, basil, and sage.

  3. 3

    Cook the pork, covered, over medium-low heat until the bottom is evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until the second side is browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat.

  4. 4

    Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the ramen noodles in the boiling water until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander set in the sink; rinse the noodles until the water runs clear. Return the noodles to the pot.

  5. 5

    Stir the kombu, bonito stock, soy sauce, and miso paste into the noodles. Cook, stirring with chopsticks, over medium heat until the miso paste is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the noodles to a serving bowl.

  6. 6

    Peel the egg and cut it in half lengthwise. Place the egg, pork slices, and fish paste slices over the noodles. Garnish with tonkatsu sauce, ginger, green onion, and black pepper.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
