We all know that soups show up within the Zelda franchise often and all of them work towards refueling our heart containers. Today, we are making an awesome ramen soup that is both super hearty and will turn you off from grocery store ramen (if you can even eat it) for the rest of your days. If this doesn't fill up your heart container, I am not sure what will. Enjoy!

Quest!
Marinate your flank steak in a gallon sized zip top bag with lime juice, soy sauce, housin, szechuan, Asian BBQ, Worcestershire Sauce and Roasted Garlic. Let sit together for at least 30 minutes but an hour or two would be better.
In a small sauce pan, add 3 eggs and enough cold water to cover. Bring them up to a boil, shut the heat off and cover. Leave alone for 5 minutes.
Immediately rinse eggs under cold water. Peel eggs and set aside for later.
In a sauce pan, add beef broth, water, ginger, nori, cilantro, thai chili, about half the green onions and lemon grass.
When it comes to a boil, add GF black bean or rice noodles. cook until softened.
Notes: I don't have a specific amount for the noodles b/c everyone likes less or more noodles. I used about half a package (3 oz.) of black bean noodles for this go round.
Add sliced mushrooms to broth. Leave a few mushrooms out for garnish later. Continue cooking together.
Divide your flank steak into two pieces. This will allow it to cook more quickly.
In a cast iron frying pan, add olive oil to the pan and seer your pieces of flank steak. We are only going to give the outside a good seer. We don't want to cook the meat all the way through.
Let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes.
Very thinly slice the meat with a knife. Paper thin is what we are going for. Yes, the meat is rare in the middle - never fear - we aren't done with it yet.
Add the meat to the broth mixture - leave a few pieces off to the side so that we have some garnish.
Cook until you are happy with the flavors and doneness of the meat. Ladle into bowls.
Garnish with snow peas, eggs, mushrooms, green onions, and meat. Enjoy!
