A one-pot Chapaghetti that recreates the rich meat aroma of authentic Chinese-style jajangmyeon by stir-frying jajang powder and jin ganjang in pork and scallion oil.

🙋 Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy the deep, rich flavor of authentic Chinese-style jajangmyeon from instant jajang ramen.
  • Those who prefer a convenient one-pot noodle dish without the hassle of boiling and draining water.

Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • 1 pack of Chapaghetti
  • 2 tbsp pork and scallion oil
  • 0.5 tbsp jin ganjang
  • 2 cups water (about 400ml)
  • a little gochugaru

Recipe 🍳

  1. In a cold pan, add 2 tablespoons of savory pork and scallion oil.
  2. Add the entire jajang powder soup packet and 0.5 tablespoon of jin ganjang. Stir-fry over low heat until the oil and powder are well combined into a jajang paste.
  3. Once the paste is evenly cooked, add 2 cups of water (400ml) and the flake soup packet. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil.
  4. When the sauce boils, add the noodle block. Simmer until the noodles are cooked and have absorbed the jajang sauce, letting the liquid reduce to a thick coating.
  5. When the noodles are done and the sauce is thick, transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with a little gochugaru to finish.
  1. In a pan, combine pork and scallion oil, jajang powder soup, and jin ganjang. Stir-fry over low heat without burning.
  2. Add water and the flake soup. Once the sauce starts boiling, add the noodles.
  3. Simmer until the noodles are well coated with the sauce, then sprinkle with gochugaru and serve.

Cooking tips 💡

  • If you cook the powder soup over high heat, it will burn quickly. Always stir-fry over low heat or off the heat using residual heat to avoid a bitter taste.
  • Use about 2 cups of water (less than usual for ramen) so the sauce reduces and coats the noodles thickly without being watery.
