In this step, just follow the instructions listed on your ramen noodles package.

Optionally you can soak your noodles in the hot water, then transfer just the noodles (without the water) to your ramen bowl, heat up your broth, season with sauces of your choice, and set aside until you finish setting your vegetable.

Add in the Protein of Your Choice

Put the protein of your choice on top of the noodles. Whatever you put into your bowl should be ideally bite-sized, but meat slices, egg halves and crab sticks can be handled well using the chopsticks, and chicken legs can be eaten with hand. So just make sure there is enough space for the vegetable on top of the noodles.

Add in Vegetable of Your Choice

To the empty space on top of noodles put the vegetable of your choice. Try to make it look neat.

If you made your own broth now is the time you pour it over the noodles, protein and vegetables.

Add in the Topping of Your Choice

Now add the topping. Topping looks great when you heap it in the middle of the bowl, but be creative.
