Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Bring a small saucepan of water up to a boil. Gently lower the eggs into the pan and cook for 7 mins. Drain well and rinse with cold water until cool enough to handle, then peel.

Step 2

Meanwhile, put half the gochujang, plus the silken tofu, miso paste and soy sauce in a bowl, and whizz using a hand blender, or tip into jug blender and blitz until smooth. Divide between two large serving bowls. Whisk the remaining goujuang paste with the sesame oil, mix well. Set aside.

Step 3

Bring a medium pan of water up to a boil. Add the noodles, their seasoning sachets and the pak choi, and cook for 2 mins. Pour 150ml of the noodle cooking water (if cooking for 2) into each serving bowl, whisking it so that the creamy gochujang is incorporated. Then drain the noodles and pak choi. Add the noodles to the bowl, then top with the pak choi, halved eggs, gochujang-sesame oil, spring onion and sesame seeds.
