If you have followed my recipes for a while, you will know that I am a big fan of fusion food of all kinds, especially fusion noodles. This Chinese-Korean Spicy Garlic Shrimp Spaghetti is another sensational combo that you have to try!
You can taste the chewy-yet-tender texture of the spaghetti noodles along with the spicy-creamy-garlicky flavors. A mouthful of bouncy Shrimp satisfies your taste buds even more. I have made a similar version of an Asian-Italian Spaghetti (Garlic Butter Spaghetti with Red Chili Oil) earlier. If you are interested, try both versions, and see which one is your favorite.
