Step 1
Bring a pot of salted water to boil for eggs. Once boiling, add eggs and cook for 6 minutes until yolk is set but still slightly soft inside.
Step 2
Cut pork belly into 4 thick slices. Heat a skillet over medium-high until very hot, then sear pork skin-side down without moving for 3 minutes until skin crisps and renders.
Step 3
Flip pork and sear flesh side 90 seconds more. Transfer to a plate.
Step 4
Pour broth into the same skillet off heat. Whisk in miso paste and soy sauce until smooth, then return to medium heat and bring to a bare simmer.
Step 5
Cook ramen noodles separately in boiling water until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain well.
Step 6
Divide noodles between two bowls, pour hot miso broth over, then top each with 2 pork belly slices, 1 soft-boiled egg (halved), scallions, and nori. Serve immediately.
