Method

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Begin by seasoning chunks of beef chuck roast generously with salt and pepper.
In the slow cooker, layer the seasoned beef at the bottom, add chopped onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Pour in both the beef broth and water, then drizzle in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and brown sugar.
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.
After cooking, check the beef for doneness; it should shred easily with a fork.
About 10 minutes before serving, cook your fresh ramen noodles in a separate pot.
Just before serving, add the baby spinach to the slow cooker, gently stirring in.
In deep bowls, ladle generous amounts of broth and beef over the prepared noodles.
Top with freshly sliced green onions and optionally, soft-boiled eggs or chili oil.
