A delicious, creamy pumpkin ramen.

Bring a pot of oil (for frying) to around 350°F. Slice your pumpkin
into very thin slices (about 1/8" thick). Then, in a bowl large
enough to accommodate your pumpkin slices, mix together the tempura
batter with 7/8 cup cold water. It should be pretty thick--like
pancake batter. Place a large plate with panko next to your tempura
batter. Add 1 ts of salt and stir the panko. Dip your pumpkin slices
in the tempura batter, then coat with panko, before dropping in the
oil. Fry until they are golden brown, around 3 minutes. Drain and set
aside. If you want to keep this recipe oil free, you can replace the
pumpkin tempura with grilled pumpkin slices!

Add the broccoli to a large pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup of
water and cover the pan and cook for about 7 minutes, at which point
your broccoli should be a brilliant dark green. Remove the lid and
cook for an additional 2 minutes, until all the water is gone.

To a medium pot over low heat, add sesame oil, together with garlic
and white part of green onion. Saute until garlic softens and grows
fragrant (about 1 minute). Make sure your heat is on low, otherwise
the sesame oil will burn! Then, add the pumpkin puree, miso paste,
and gochujang. Stir everything together until well combined. Add
vegetable broth, together with soy milk, and bring everything to a
boil. Reduce heat to medium and allow the broth to simmer for about
10 minutes. In the meantime, cook your ramen noodles.

To assemble your ramen, add your noodles to the bowls. Then, pour the
broth equally between the bowls. Top with steamed broccoli, cooked
corn, silken tofu, and pumpkin tempura. Garnish with scallion greens,
black sesame seeds, toasted pumpkin seeds, and a little chili oil.
