Cold Udon With Kimchi And Tofu Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the udon noodles as the label directs. (Don't overcook or they will get mushy.) Drain, reserving about 1/3 cup of the cooking water.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Pat the tofu dry and season all over with salt and pepper. Add the tofu to the skillet and sear until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Set aside and keep warm.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil and the greens to the skillet. Cook, tossing, until just wilted. Add the scallions, red pepper flakes, the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the soy sauce and sugar. Add the reserved cooking water; heat to create a broth. Divide the noodles and greens among 4 bowls and top with the tofu.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook udon in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.
• Mix honey, soy sauce, sriracha sauce, and rice vinegar in a bowl. Set sauce aside.
• Place bacon in a large pan and cook over high heat until fat is rendered but bacon is not yet crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add kimchi and garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add the sauce, udon noodles, and sesame oil; stir well. Remove from heat and transfer noodles to a plate. Top with scallions.

Steps:

• Put the noodles in a sieve over the sink and pour over a kettle of boiling water. Toss to separate, then leave to drain.
• Heat 1 tbsp of the sesame oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and ginger, and fry for 5 mins until softened slightly. Add the broccoli, kimchi and radish, and continue to fry for 5 mins. Stir in the drained noodles, spring onions and soy sauce.
• Meanwhile, put the remaining ½ tbsp oil in a small frying pan and fry the eggs for 3 mins, or until cooked to your liking. Serve the noodles in bowls with an egg on top, and sprinkle with the sesame seeds and some chilli flakes, if you like.

Steps:

• Heat 2 Tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add chopped kimchi and gochujang and cook, stirring occasionally, until kimchi is softened and lightly caramelized, about 4 minutes. Add broth and kimchi juice and bring to a simmer. Cook until liquid is slightly reduced, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, boil noodles according to package directions.
• Using tongs, transfer noodles to skillet and add remaining 3 Tbsp. butter; cook, tossing often, until sauce coats noodles, about 2 minutes. Season with salt if needed. Divide among bowls and top with egg yolks, scallions, and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook udon according to package instructions. Drain and distribute evenly among serving bowls.
• In a large Dutch oven or pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the scallions, ginger and garlic, and cook until they begin to soften and the garlic is fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Season well with salt.
• Stir in the kimchi and kimchi juice and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the stock and the soy sauce sauce and stir together to combine. Bring to a simmer and stir in your greens. Allow everything to simmer until the greens are tender and the flavors have come together, 5 to 10 minutes. Taste and adjust with salt if needed.
• Ladle the soup over the udon and garnish with scallions and other toppings to taste.
