Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the eggs by bringing a pot of water to a gentle boil. Add 4 eggs and cook for 6 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath.
- While the eggs cool, prepare the remaining ingredients: mince the shallots and garlic, grate the ginger, slice the green onions, and julienne the carrots.
- Heat 1.5 tablespoons of sesame oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add shrimp seasoned with chili powder and sauté for 2-3 minutes until pink.
- In the same pot, add the remaining sesame oil, then sauté the minced shallots until translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add ginger and garlic, cooking for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in 8 cups of chicken broth along with lime juice, soy sauce, fish sauce, and chili powder. Simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions for 4-5 minutes or add broken ramen squares to the simmering broth for 2-3 minutes until tender.
- Stir in 2 cups of spinach and cook for 1 minute until wilted.
- Return the sautéed shrimp to the pot and simmer for another 1-2 minutes until warmed through.
- Ladle into bowls, garnish with half of a soft-boiled egg, julienned carrots, sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and hoisin sauce. Serve with lime wedges.

Notes
Avoid overcooking shrimp to keep them tender. Adjust chili powder per preference and cool boiled eggs quickly in an ice bath for the best texture.
