INGREDIENTS
Udon Noodles – This is one of the most popular noodles in Asian cooking. You can buy this from most Asian grocery stores. Your local stores will likely have this as well.
Sesame Oil – It has a special flavor and aroma. This is normally used as a finishing oil, which can elevate the flavor and add a delightful richness.
Butter – You can use regular butter or vegan butter.
Gochujangย โ This is the most popular Korean Spicy Sauce. It has a bold sweet, spicy, and umami flavor. I like to use it for different recipes. You can find it in your local Asian grocery store. These days, many regular grocery stores sell this too. Vegan option is also available.
Chili Flakes – This adds a bit extra spicy tang. If you want to tune down the spiciness, you can skip this.
Whole Milk – This retains its fat (about 3.5 percent) and it’s slightly thick. You can also use reduced-fat milk (about 2 percent) or skim milk.
Parmesan Cheese – This is one of my favorite kind of Italian cheeses. It has this amazing salty, savoury, and rich taste.
Mozzarella Cheese – I like to shred the Mozzarella Cheese here. You can use any kind of Mozzarella Cheese. But for the best quality, I recommend Buffalo Mozzarella.
Green Onions – or called Spring Onions. It is great for garnishing at the end. It adds beautiful green color and it is rich in healthy nutrients.
Gochugaru – This is Korean Chili Powder. Itย has a complex flavor profile with spicy, sweet, and slightly smoky tastes. You can find this in your local Asian grocery stores.

Haini’s Tips
โข For this recipe, you can also use Ramen Noodles. โข You can adjust the cooking time to decide how thick you want the sauce to be. If you prefer the cheese is a bit more liquid like, do not cook the sauce for too long before mixing with the noodles. โข You can also adjust the amount of cheese and milk to create the creamy texture that you like.
