EASY KOREAN NOODLES RECIPE

One of my favorite things to make is Asian inspired noodle dishes.

I love rotating between today’s Easy Korean Noodles Recipe, Asian Chicken Noodle Soup, Spicy Asian Chicken Soup and this Easy Chicken Ramen Noodle Stir Fry.

It is fun to make some of your favorites you might eat at a restaurant at home. One I often will recreate at home is this Spicy Thai Basil Chicken Stir-Fry.

There is something about the sauce in today’s Easy Korean Noodles Recipe that I just love. It is a nice balance between sweet and savory. 

If you like spice you can add in Sriracha or gochujang {Korean Chili paste} to add some heat. 

This recipe is vegetarian and mixes mushrooms with kale and rice noodles.

You can easily add in additional vegetables, greens and use any of your favorite noodles.

This dish is very customizable, which I love!

WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE IN THIS EASY KOREAN NOODLE RECIPE?

MUSHROOMS: This dish features mushrooms. You can use your favorite variety of mushroom, any will work nicely. 

NOODLES: This noodle recipe uses rice noodles. I love the texture of these noodles mixed with the sauce! 

KALE: I added kale to this dish and especially like curly kale. I suggest chopping it so it is on the smaller side. 

SAUCE: The sauce is sweet and savory which I love. It features soy sauce, vegetable stock, honey and ginger. 

HOW DO YOU MAKE THIS KOREAN NOODLE RECIPE?

Cook the noodles according to the package.

While the noodles cook melt the butter and sesame oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.

Add the mushrooms and cook, without moving for 5 minutes.

Toss and cook for 3 more minutes or until caramelized.

Add the red onion and garlic clove and stir to combine, cook until the onion is slightly translucent, around 3 minutes.

Add the kale and saute until just wilted.

Pour the soy sauce, rice vinegar, stock, honey and ginger and stir to combine.

Add the cooked noodles and toss so everything is well coated. Cook for 2 more minutes.

Serve topped with green onions and sesame seeds.
