Mix together the soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, OKAZU, and chili flakes to make the sauce.

In a separate pot, boil the egg for 7 minutes for a jammy center. Rinse under icy cold water, then peel.

Prepare and mince the garlic, slice the scallion, and roughly chop the cilantro.

Boil a pot of water.

Cook the noodles in boiling water for 2 minutes until tender.

In the same pot, blanch the greens until just cooked. Drain and set aside.

Assemble the drained, cooked noodles and blanched greens in a large heatproof bowl.

Top the noodle bowl with prepared scallion, cilantro, and minced garlic.

Pour the soy-ginger sauce over the noodle bowl with toppings.

Heat vegetable oil in a small pot until shimmering. Carefully pour the hot oil over the bowl of noodles.

Add the jammy boiled egg to each bowl, top with extra OKAZU, and serve.
