Breakfast, they say, is the most important meal of the day, it is the meal that will start your day and the meal that will give you energy to last at least half your our day that is why a lot of us is in constant search for their ultimate breakfast. Have you found yours? Well, I found mine in a form or hot ramen soup.
One day when I was planning to make breakfast and I suddenly thought of making this. I combined some of my favourite breakfast items like Spam, sunny side up eggs, gyoza and ramen but I think it’s not enough so why not make it hot and spicy, remember chilies boosts your metabolism and the best time to boost it is in the morning when it is still sleeping. I know ramen might be odd for most to consume during breakfast but noodle soups are a popular breakfast item in Asia, having said that rice porridges and even fried rice is a popular breakfast item back home. Get the recipe for delicious gyoza here.
The result was phenomenal and it definitely waked me and filled me up ready to tackle my day to day activities. It’s packed with carbs and protein so it’s a good fuel to start you up. How about you do you have an idea of your ultimate breakfast? Share it below.

Where can I purchase dashi stock? I won’t want to get out the seaweed (kombu) and make the stock myself in the early morning?? Is there a commercial stock-in-a-box brand of dashi available in Asian stores??
