Kimchi Udon Noodle Stir Fry Recipes

KIMCHI UDON NOODLE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook udon in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.
• Mix honey, soy sauce, sriracha sauce, and rice vinegar in a bowl. Set sauce aside.
• Place bacon in a large pan and cook over high heat until fat is rendered but bacon is not yet crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add kimchi and garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add the sauce, udon noodles, and sesame oil; stir well. Remove from heat and transfer noodles to a plate. Top with scallions.

15 MINUTE KOREAN STYLE UDON STIR FRY

Steps:

• Add 1 tablespoon of kimchi butter (see below for kimchi butter instructions) to a skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook, 3-4 minutes per side, until no longer pink in the middle.
• Remove and set aside to cool. Once cool to the touch, slice the chicken into bite sized pieces. You can do this part in advance if you'd like.
• Add another tablespoon of kimchi butter to the skillet and heat over medium-high heat.
• Add the chicken and cook for 30 seconds.
• Add the udon noodles and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes. It's ok if the noodles char a touch, it adds some flavor. Just be careful they don't burn.
• Add the mirin and let it cook for 1 minute, tossing often.
• Add the soy sauce, bacon and sesame oil. Cook until all the liquid has evaporated (about 2-3 minutes).
• Serve with a fried egg on top (optional) and garnish with green onions.

KIMCHI SESAME UDON NOODLES

Steps:

• Put the noodles in a sieve over the sink and pour over a kettle of boiling water. Toss to separate, then leave to drain.
• Heat 1 tbsp of the sesame oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and ginger, and fry for 5 mins until softened slightly. Add the broccoli, kimchi and radish, and continue to fry for 5 mins. Stir in the drained noodles, spring onions and soy sauce.
• Meanwhile, put the remaining ½ tbsp oil in a small frying pan and fry the eggs for 3 mins, or until cooked to your liking. Serve the noodles in bowls with an egg on top, and sprinkle with the sesame seeds and some chilli flakes, if you like.
