Sesame Instant Ramen Noodles with Brocoli and Soft-Boiled Egg

 3 cups water

1 cup frozen broccoli

1 (3 oz) package ramen-noodle soup mix

1 tsp toasted sesame oil

1/2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

1 large soft-boiled egg, halved

1.  Bring water to boil in a medium saucepan.  Add broccoli; cook for 2 minutes.  Add noodles (reserve the seasoning packet); cook until the noodles are tender about 3 minutes more.  Drain the broccoli and noodles and return to the pan.

2.  Add sesame oil, sesame seeds adn half of the seasoning packet  (discard the remainder or reserve for another use); toss well to combine.  Transfer to a bowl; top with egg and serve.

Tips:  To soft-boil eggs:  Place eggs in a sauce pan; add water to just cover the eggs.  Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.  Remove from heat and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes for perfect soft-set yolks.
