- 1½ inches fresh ginger, peeled and grated
- 6 cups beef broth (or vegetable broth)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon chili paste or sauce (optional)

- 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- 2 baby bok choy (or 1 small head), chopped
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Instructions
- Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add sliced onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes.
- Add garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in beef broth, then stir in soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili paste if using. Bring to a simmer.
- Add mushrooms and bok choy. Cook for 2–3 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Gently add beef dumplings and simmer according to package directions (5–7 minutes if frozen).
- Meanwhile, cook ramen noodles in a separate pot as per package instructions (3–4 minutes), drain, and set aside.
- Once dumplings are cooked, gently stir the soup to combine flavors.
- Divide noodles between serving bowls, then ladle over broth, dumplings, and vegetables.
- Top with green onions, black sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes if desired.
Notes
- Cook noodles separately to avoid overcooking and broth cloudiness.
- Store broth, dumplings, and noodles separately for best texture when reheating.
- Customize with different proteins or additional vegetables.
