Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 3 oz glass noodles see Note 1, dry wide
  • 4 oz tofu optional, or rice cakes or veggie balls
  • 1 to 3 tbsp hot sauce approx. 1 to 2 packets of sauce from the instant ramen packs, Samyang Buldak
  • salt to taste; see Note 2, or soy sauce
Optional Toppings
  • 1 tbsp Furikake Seasoning homemade
  • scallions or cilantro
  • cheddar cheese (I use Daiya Shreds)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add wide glass noodles and water to a stock pot or deep skillet over high heat. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes (depending on how soft you like your noodles; see Note 1).
  2. Once noodles are nearly cooked, add the tofu, rice cakes, veggie balls, and hot sauce.
  3. Stir frequently to prevent noodles from sticking, until most of the water has evaporated and you’re left with a thick sauce.
  4. Plate and top with furikake, scallions or cilantro, and cheese (if desired).

Notes

  • Glass Noodles: I prefer using wide glass noodles for these fiery noodles. They’re much more satisfying to slurp. If using thinner glass noodles, they will cook faster so reduce the simmering time.
  • Salt or Soy Sauce: Depending on how much buldak hot sauce you add, you may need to add some additional salt or soy sauce.
