The Method

1
In a large pot, melt the Jersey butter over medium heat. Add the grated ginger and minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
2
Add the Jersey Royal potatoes to the pot and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to brown slightly.
3
Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and mirin. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
4
Add the Jersey milk to the pot and stir well. Simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the broth to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
While the broth is simmering, cook the ramen noodles according to package directions. Drain well.
6
Just before serving, gently stir in the spinach into the broth until wilted.
7
Divide the cooked ramen noodles among four bowls.
8
Ladle the potato broth over the noodles, ensuring each bowl gets a good portion of the potatoes.
9
Top each bowl with the Jersey crab meat, sliced spring onions, toasted sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sesame oil and chili oil (if using).
10
Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tips

For a richer broth, use homemade chicken stock or a high-quality store-bought brand.

Feel free to add other toppings to your ramen, such as a soft-boiled egg, seaweed, or sliced mushrooms.

The cooking time for the potatoes may vary depending on their size. Check for tenderness by piercing with a fork.

Adjust the amount of soy sauce and chili oil to your taste preference.
