New Orleans Style Yakamein
A comforting and hearty New Orleans soup featuring tender beef, noodles, a savory broth, and a hard-boiled egg.
Ingredients
- 1½ lb beef chuck roast
- 1 yellow onion
- 4 clove garlic
- 8 cup beef broth
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp cajun seasoning
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 8 oz spaghetti or ramen noodles
- 4 eggs
- 4 green onions (optional)
- 1 tsp hot sauce (optional)
Steps
- Cut beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes. Season with half of the Cajun seasoning and black pepper.
- Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef cubes on all sides, then remove and set aside.
- Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot, sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Return beef to the pot. Add beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and remaining Cajun seasoning. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 60-75 minutes, or until beef is tender.
- While the beef simmers, boil eggs to your desired doneness (typically hard-boiled for Yakamein). Cook spaghetti or ramen noodles according to package directions, then drain.
- To serve, place a portion of cooked noodles in each bowl. Ladle the hot beef and broth over the noodles. Halve the hard-boiled eggs and add one to each bowl.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and a dash of hot sauce, if desired.
