Korean Jjajangmyeon Carbonara
A unique twist on the classic carbonara dish using slightly expired Korean Jjajangmyeon instant black bean noodles.
Ingredients
- 150g slightly expired Korean Jjajangmyeon instant black bean noodles
- 2 eggs
- 50g grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 slices of bacon, chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a bowl, beat the eggs and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
In a large skillet, fry the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the bacon fat and sauté until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cooked noodles to the skillet. Mix well to coat the noodles with the bacon fat and garlic.
Pour the egg and Parmesan mixture over the noodles, stirring continuously to ensure the eggs cook and create a creamy sauce. Add the heavy cream and continue stirring until well combined.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped parsley.
Serve hot and enjoy!
