4. Soft-Boil the Egg: In another pot, put an egg and add water to cook for 6-7 minutes. Add to cold water, peel and cut into half.
5. Assemble the Ramen: Place noodles in a bowl. Serve The Base Of A Bowl Of Hot Broth And Toppings. Garnish with soft boiled egg, green onions and an option of chili flakes or butter.

Notes

• Thoroughly rinse shirataki noodles in order to eliminate odour
• Add bone broth if you want to incorporate more collagen and depth of flavour.
• If you like add a spoon of ghee or MCT oil for extra fats just before serving.
• Make it your own: Add spinach, bok choy and bamboo shoots.
• Do not over-cook the zucchini noodles—them get really soggy, really soft super fast.
