Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 2 - lb. ground pork, divided
- 1 - 2" piece fresh ginger, peeled, cut into thin matchsticks or finely chopped
- 8 - garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 2 - Tbsp. sugar
- 2 - Tbsp. tomato paste
- 2 sprigs - basil, plus more for serving
- 1/4 - cup soy sauce
- 1/4 - cup unseasoned rice vinegar
- - lb. fresh ramen noodles or 16 oz. dried spaghetti
- 2 - Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 1/3 cups - hot chili paste (such as sambal oelek)
- - kosher salt
- 2 - Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Directions:
Heat oil in a large wide heavy pot over medium-high. Add half of pork to pot, breaking apart into 6–8 large chunks with a wooden spoon. Cook, undisturbed, until well browned underneath, about 5 minutes. Turn pieces and continue to cook, turning occasionally, until pork is browned on 2–3 sides, about 5 minutes longer. Add ginger, garlic, sugar, and remaining pork to pot and cook, breaking up pork into small clumps, until meat is nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes longer. Add tomato paste and 2 basil sprigs. Cook, stirring occasionally, until paste darkens, about 2 minutes. Add chili paste, soy sauce, vinegar, and 2 cups water. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until sauce is slightly thickened and flavors have melded, 30–45 minutes.
Just before sauce is done, cook noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until 1 minute short of al dente.
Using tongs, add noodles to sauce, then add butter and a splash of pasta cooking liquid. Simmer, tossing occasionally, until sauce begins to cling to noodles, about 1 minute. Pluck out basil sprigs.
Divide noodles among plates. Top with torn basil.
