  • In the same pot, add diced shallot (or onion), minced garlic, and minced ginger. Sauté for about 3 minutes until they become fragrant and the shallot is translucent.
  • Add sliced shiitake mushrooms and green curry paste. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender.

  • Add dry ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions (approximately 4-5 minutes). Stir occasionally.
  • Stir in chopped bok choy and shredded purple cabbage. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes until greens are wilted.
  • Return the tofu to the pot, mix well to combine, and heat through for another minute. Serve hot, garnished with lime wedges or fresh herbs.
