Korean Mushroom Ramen

This Korean Mushroom Ramen is a simple vegetarian ramen soup. I love adding Gochujang chili paste to any vegetables, whether it’s in soup, stew, or even roasted veggies. Gochujang is a fermented chili paste with an umami flavor. I stir-fried the shiitake mushrooms and bok choy first with the sauce, then I added the vegetable broth. I used coconut palm sugar to balance the flavor. If you cannot find coconut palm sugar, just add light brown sugar.
