Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Soak the glass noodles in warm water for at least 1 hour before cooking so they absorb seasoning quickly and don't become mushy.
  • Adding a little dark soy sauce (laochou) gives the dish the appetizing deep brown color typical of Chinese restaurant japchae rice.
  • Add the paprika at the end with residual heat instead of stir-frying from the start to preserve its crisp texture and vibrant color.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to recreate the smoky, wok-fried japchae rice from Chinese restaurants at home.
  • Those who want to make an impressive one-bowl meal with oyster sauce and basic seasonings.
