Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • Leftover LA galbi marinade, to taste
  • 1 serving Chinese noodles or udon noodles
  • Mayonnaise
  • A handful of bonito flakes

Recipe 🍳

  1. Prepare the frying pan with the leftover LA galbi, ensuring the meat juices and marinade remain.
  2. Add the chewy Chinese noodles or udon noodles directly to the pan.
  3. Stir-fry over medium heat until the galbi marinade evenly coats the noodles and the sauce thickens.
  4. Once the sauce clings to the noodles, turn off the heat and artfully arrange the noodles on a serving plate.
  5. Drizzle mayonnaise in a zigzag pattern over the top.
  6. Finally, generously sprinkle a handful of bonito flakes on top, letting them dance and melt in the residual heat to finish.
  1. Add Chinese or udon noodles to the pan used for grilling galbi.
  2. Stir-fry over medium heat until the marinade evenly coats the noodles.
  3. Plate the noodles, drizzle with mayonnaise, and top with bonito flakes to complete.

Cooking tips 💡

  • To achieve a deep umami flavor infused into the noodles, stir-fry directly in the pan without cleaning it, preserving the mixed galbi fat and meat juices.
  • If the marinade becomes too thick, add another spoonful of galbi marinade or a little water to maintain moisture while stir-frying.
  • Using pre-cooked udon noodles significantly shortens the cooking time, making it more convenient.
