Easy Korean Style Noodles
This takes 10-15 mins to make and it's so packed with flavour! We make a beautiful sauce that makes this dish sing! We often say that the sixth flavour in food is texture and by slicing the veg into thin matchstick size shapes or julienne, they look interesting and go great when only slightly cooked. The sauce also works great as a dipping sauce.
