Spicy Korean Temple Noodles Recipes

SPICY KOREAN TEMPLE NOODLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the gochujang, vinegar, sugar, berry extract and soy sauce.
• Bring to a boil 3 quarts of water in a large pot with plenty of space to spare. Add the noodles, and when the water returns to the boil, add a cup of cold water. Return to the boil and repeat, adding the cold water, twice more. By this time the noodles should be al dente. Drain them, rinse briefly with cold water and drain well.
• Add noodles to the bowl of seasoning. Toss together. Divide among 4 plates or bowls, top each with cucumber and serve.

EASY KOREAN SPICY NOODLES (WITH BEEF)

Steps:

• Cut beef into thin strips against the grain. Chop the veggies into similar-sized pieces. Cook the Korean noodles according to the package instructions.
• Preheat a wok with a little bit of oil over medium heat. Brown the mushrooms and set them aside. Brown the carrots and set them aside.
• In a small bowl, whisk together all the sauce ingredients. In the wok, cook the beef slices until they form a bit of a brown crust. Pour the sauce over the beef. Let the beef simmer in the sauce for a couple of minutes.
• Add the noodles, carrots, green onions, and mushrooms into the wok. Toss to combine everything together. Add spinach, stir to combine, and cook for 5 additional minutes.
• Serve warm and enjoy!

RAMEN CARBONARA

Steps:

• In a large skillet (preferably nonstick), cook bacon over medium heat until fat is rendered and meat is cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent scorching. When bacon is cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a paper-towel-lined plate. Set aside.
• Pour off the extra bacon fat in the pan, leaving behind any browned bits stuck on the bottom. Return pan to medium-high heat and add boiling water, butter and half the cheese. Stir, scraping up bacon bits, and bring to a boil. Add noodle blocks and boil, gently separating the strands as they soften, until noodles are almost cooked through, about 3 minutes. The noodles will absorb some of the liquid, and there will be a thick broth in the pan. Keep the heat high; you want most of the liquid to evaporate.
• Reduce heat to low. Add whisked eggs, stir into noodles very well, and cook, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom of the pan, about 1 minute. The sauce should remain quite runny; the eggs will continue to cook after you remove them from the heat. Mix in cooked bacon, remaining cheese and plenty of black pepper and immediately remove from the heat.
• Scrape mixture into 2 large serving bowls. If not making fried eggs, serve immediately, grinding pepper over the top of each bowl.
• If making fried eggs, cover the noodle bowls to keep them warm. Return empty pan to medium heat, add a lump of butter, and swirl until melted and foaming. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until yolks are just set and edges are brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to noodle bowls, grind on more pepper, and serve immediately.
