Spicy Shrimp Ramen

I'm not a traditionally trained chef by any means. Just a guy who enjoys cooking and eating fresh, made at home foods. I've basically just been cooking different recipes out of cookbooks, and the fine people at Buzzfeed/tasty have given me tons of new things to try I otherwise wouldn't have. I mixed different aspects from a couple different ramen recipes I've tried over the years and came up with this. My girlfriend has never really been into the instant noodle type ramen but absolutely loved this. Would love to hear your opinions on ingredients or process that would make this better!

  1. Bring 6 cups water to a boil in medium dutch oven- add 3 chicken bouillon cubes (reduced sodium if you must) and 2 teaspoons of chili garlic sauce- stir until evenly dissolved. Reduce to simmer and cover.

  2. In medium sized Wok, heat to medium-high and add 1.5 tablespoon sesame oil, 5 finely minced cloves of garlic, and 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger. Cook until fragrant and slightly browned. Add 1 small yellow onion, 1 medium red bell pepper, and 2 tablespoons sriracha. Cook for 3 minutes or until onions are golden in color. Scrape all ingredients into simmering broth.

  3. In your now empty wok or skillet, heat 2 tablespoons sesame oil over medium high, add a half pound of shrimp seasoned with fine sea salt, black pepper, and fresh basil. Cook for 90 seconds to 2 minutes. Add to simmering broth with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of rice vinegar, one full-size carrot sliced into coins and 2 tablespoons lemon juice.

  4. Boil 4 bundles of noodles until cooked(I prefer this product and have had luck finding it at whole foods; https://www.amazon.com/Hakubaku-Organic-Ramen-9-5-Ounce-Pack/dp/B007WQCENQ), remove and strain under cold water to stop cooking.

  5. Remove dutch oven from heat, add cooked noodles and serve. Garnish with sliced scallion.
