Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Japanese miso paste
- 4 cups hot water
- 400 grams Chinese noodles
- 2 cups assorted Korean bibimbap toppings (e.g., sautéed spinach, carrots, bean sprouts, kimchi, fried eggs, etc.)
- Pink bowl for serving (optional, but adds a fun touch!)
Instructions
- Prepare the Miso Broth: In a large pot, dissolve the miso paste in the hot water. Stir until fully combined, creating a rich and flavorful miso broth. Bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Cook the Noodles: In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add the Chinese noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté the Toppings: In a skillet over medium heat, quickly sauté your bibimbap toppings (like spinach and carrots) for just a few minutes until they’re tender but still vibrant in color. Season with a pinch of salt.
- Assemble the Bowl: In each pink bowl, place a generous serving of the cooked noodles. Ladle the warm miso broth over the noodles until they are submerged.
- Add the Toppings: Artfully arrange the sautéed toppings and any additional bibimbap favorites on top of the noodles. Don’t forget a fried egg for that extra richness!
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of sesame seeds or a drizzle of chili oil for those who like it spicy. Dive in and enjoy the bold flavors!
