Ursula Graves

Report

Japchae is a well known Korean glassy noodle stir fry of sweet potato starch noodles with vegetables and beef and can be enjoyed as a side dish, snack, or main entree. It's easy to prepare ahead of time for a quick weeknight supper or potlucks. One can easily adapt the recipe to be vegan, gluten free, or top 8 allergen free.
