Creamy Vegan Thai Peanut Ramen
Whether Chinese food, Thai food, Indian food or Japanese food – I love all Asian recipes! And after my Vegan Pad Thai Recipe was so delicious, I wanted to share this tasty and incredibly creamy Japanese noodle soup. Actually, my version actually reminds me of a pasta dish with creamy coconut peanut sauce and vegetables. But I like soups that way – wonderfully creamy, thick, flavorful and satisfying! So I found the title “Thai Peanut Noodle Soup” perfect for this Ramen! Anyway, this recipe is really quick and easy to make, incredibly delicious and a great weeknight lunch or dinner for any time!
Homemade noodle soup – simple, healthy and delicious!
Readymade soups are now available anywhere in thousands of variations to buy in the store. But let’s be honest, do they taste good? I mean, the preparation is of course super quick and easy – just boil water, tear up the bag, fill in the powder and stir. However, the nutrient content in such a soup is relatively low and is believed to contain many undesirable ingredients, such as flavor enhancers and artificial flavors. Therefore, I find that homemade foods are always the best! Not only because it is much healthier this way, but also, it tastes much better and you can customize the ingredients to your taste and diet!
Quick and easy Vegan Thai Peanut Ramen
What makes this simple recipe so special is the creamy peanut coconut broth. In combination with the Japanese Ramen noodles, this is actually the basic recipe for my Thai peanut ramen noodle soup. The traditional Ramen broth can basically be prepared in many different ways, but I made mine with vegetable broth, coconut milk, and peanut butter.
Plant-based ingredients and natural spices
When it comes to spices I prefer using only natural organic ingredients and seasonings. In this Thai peanut ramen noodle soup, I’ve added fresh roasted garlic, ginger and curry paste for tasty flavors. Furthermore, I’ve added Jalapeños which make this ramen soup spicy! Anyway, you can add any spices you want but I would never skip the garlic as it adds an intense flavor to the broth.
Vegan Ramen Noodle Soup
Even though the preparation of the Ramen noodle soup takes even less than 20 minutes, it takes a little time to unfold flavors. So the longer the broth simmers or rests, the more intense the flavors become. So, if you prepare the broth one day ahead and chill it overnight, it will be even tastier the next day! Then, all you need to do is heat it up and bring to a boil, add the ramen noodles and let simmer for 5 minutes (or according to the package instructions for the noodles).
Tofu, mushrooms or other vegetables? Use any ingredients!
You can add any additional ingredients to your wish. I made my vegan ramen soup with crispy tofu and roasted mushrooms, but you can also use other vegetables such as carrots, zucchini, broccoli, etc. or prepare the soup without tofu if you don’t like it. When I still have vegetables from the day before, then I just throw everything together and it always goes well and tastes delicious!
Crispy tofu and roasted mushrooms
To prepare the crispy tofu and mushrooms, you should first drain the tofu well. I usually wrap it in kitchen paper to squeeze the excess liquid. Once dry, you can dice the squeezed tofu, marinate with the turmeric (or other spices). Then fry in a pan with hot oil until crispy. I usually use a separate pan for the mushrooms, as this is to me the best way to do it. Anyway, I think you could also fry both together in one pan. Finally, I add the crispy tofu to the fried mushrooms. Add some soy sauce and stir to combine until the tofu and mushrooms are well coated and nicely browned.
I hope you will enjoy my Vegan Thai Peanut Ramen! This Japanese Noodle soup is:
- Vegan, Vegetarian

Vegan Thai Peanut Ramen
Author:Ingredients
Thai Peanut Ramen
- 2 tsp coconut oil or other oil
- 2-3 garlic cloves minced
- approx. 1 tsp ginger finely grated
- 1 tbsp thai curry paste
- 3-4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 14 oz can coconut milk full-fat, 400ml
- 1/3 cup peanut butter 80ml, or more to taste
- 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tbsp agave syrup or other sweetener, to taste
- squeeze of lime juice optional
- 1 tsp jalapeño chili spice or to taste
- 8,8 oz ramen noodles 250g
Tofu & Mushrooms
- 10,5 oz firm tofu 300g
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp turmeric optional
- 2 tbsp peanut oil or other oil
- 12,4 oz mushrooms 350g, sliced
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- other vegetables of choice
To serve (optional)
- toasted peanuts
- sesame
- fresh spring onions, parsley or other herbs
Instructions
Peanut coconut broth
- * Note: Please watch the recipe video to see how easy it is to make this soup!
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Roast the garlic and ginger briefly while stirring, about 1-2 minutes. Then add the curry paste and sauté briefly. (At this point, you can also add other vegetables, sauté and then cook.)
- Pour in the coconut milk and broth and bring to a boil. Then stir in the peanut butter, soy sauce, agave syrup and jalapeño. Simmer the broth for about 10 minutes. Then add the ramen noodles and simmer for 5 minutes (or according to the packing instructions). (While the broth is cooking, prepare the tofu and the mushrooms.)
Crispy tofu and mushrooms
- Drain the tofu, wrap in kitchen paper and squeeze. Then cut into cubes and optionally marinate with the turmeric and corn starch (then the tofu will be crispier).
- Heat the peanut oil in two pans (or in one large pan). In one pan, fry the tofu until crispy from all sides. In the other pan fry the mushrooms until golden brown. Then add the mushrooms to the tofu, glaze with the soy sauce and stir to combine until evenly coated and nicely browned.
- Serve your Thai peanut ramen with the crispy tofu and mushrooms. Sprinkle freshly chopped scallions, parsley, peanuts and sesame or any other toppings on top.
- Enjoy! 😊
Notes
- I prefer using 5 minute ramen noodles, but you can also use whole grain or gluten-free ramen noodles. Alternatively, you can use any other noodles, but please make sure to check the cooking time on the packaging, so you either cook the noodle soup longer or add the noodles earlier.
- Prepare the peanut broth well in advance and chill overnight to unfold flavors. Then boil it up the next day and cook the noodles. I recommend to cook the noodles before serving, otherwise, they will be soggy.

Not only does it look super yummy, it tastes heavenly delicious and.. it’s super easy to cook! We used Seitan instead of tofu and added some broccoli in the beginning – Soo damn delicious!
Noted this one down in my list of favorite recipes <3
Big fan of your website Bianca – can't wait to try the next recipe!
hi Isabella, so glad you enjoyed this Thai peanut ramen soup! Thank you for your amazing feedback! I will definitely try it with seitan, too! Lots of love, Bianca <3
Hi I just had to say I made this for my family
non-traditional thanksgiving dinner this year theme was Asia so I had to make serving for 10 people one of the easygoing meals of the night and people loved it. I did make my broth 5 hours before hand just to have room in the kitchen for everything else.
Hi Anne, so glad you served this ramen soup to your thanksgiving dinner! Thank you for your feedback! Lots of love, Bianca <3
I made it last night. I cheated and it wasn’t vegan because used chicken for tofu and it was equally delicious.
But I already used gluten free rice ramen because the normal kind was sold out everywhere and it was also great.
So happy that you liked my vegan ramen soup and that it was also delicious with gluten-free noodles 🙂 Thank you!
I made it this evening and it was really delicious !
So happy about that! Thank you so much! I love this recipe too 🙂
hi if you cook like this often then i want to marry you. thanks
Haha, you’re so sweet 😀
This soup is perfect! That was my first homemade ramen and it was delicious 😍
Very easy recipe, but ramen looks like very complex and difficult to do 😛
I’m in love 😍
So glad to hear that 🙂 Thank you 🙂
Made this for dinner tonight- so delicious! I made the broth with vegetables the night before, and let it sit overnight to soak in the flavors. Then when I got home from work today, it was SO EASY to have dinner ready in 10 minutes- all I had to do was reheat the broth and add in the ramen noodles to cook!
So glad to hear that! Thank you so much 🙂
I made this tonight and used leftover vegetables that I had: brussel sprouts, roasted potatoes, caramelized onions and the marinated tofu. I did miss the mushrooms! This recipe had so much flavor, we all loved it! I will definitely be making it again. Thank you for sharing!
This sounds super delicious! Thank you so much 🙂
This is one of the best meals I’ve ever made! So so sooo tasty and super easy to make too. I made a few adaptations as I didn’t have the exact ingredients and it still turned out amazing
So glad to hear that! Thank you 🙂
Love this recipe 😍 one of the best Ramen i ever did.
