This mightВ sound a little strange when you think about putting it all over your noodles, but trust me, it makes it creamy and delicious and balances out the heat of the other ingredients. One is made using Siracha and mayonnaise.

The other important part of the Cupbop bowl is the sauces. A great tip is to freeze yourВ peeled ginger to make grating and storage of it a breeze. I use a small cheese grater to grate both of these ingredients. Another key to this recipe is fresh ginger and garlic. The noodles can be substituted for rice noodles that are more readily available, but I would look for these when youВ are shopping for the other ingredients. I have taken a picture of the kind I use so you can see what to look for at your store. Again, I had never cooked with these before but they are a pretty typical Korean ingredient and should not be too hard to locate. They are called dangmyeon or sweet potato noodles. The next important ingredientВ is the noodles.

You need this for the recipe! Gochuchang isВ a fermented red pepper paste, and what makes this dish so delicious. I had never heard of this before I started researching Korean recipes, but it is pretty much key to almost all Korean dishes. One of the most important ingredients that you cannot leave out is gochuchang. Some notes: IвЂ™m lucky to live close to a great grocery store, Ocean Market, and I am able to pick up the most authentic ingredients here (Ocean Market is located off 90th South in Sandy for my readers who are also in Utah). I also love itВ because you make the chicken in your crockpot! #Winning! I think it tastes really close to the real thing. They are really delicious but a bit too pricey to buy every time the craving hits, so I developed my own recipe. Cup bop bowls are bowls layered with rice, stir fried sweet potato noodles, iceberg lettuce and then topped with your choice of meat and then sauces. They are a Korean food truck that started around here a few years ago and now have built some stores because they are so popular! I have always loved Korean food, and I love trying to make it at home (see my Korean Beef Bulgogi recipe HERE). You will have to make a special trip to your local speciality foodВ store to buy the most authentic ingredients, but you can also probably find some good substitutions at your regular grocery store.ДЇirst off, if you arenвЂ™t from Utah, you are probably wondering what Cupbop is. I try to share recipes that have ingredients you can find at any grocery store, but this recipe is the exception. I was a little hesitant because itвЂ™s a little different than recipes I usually post on here. Okay, so I hinted way back on my post about my daughterвЂ™s Hello Kitty party post HERE that we had these delicious Korean noodles, and then I realized I never shared the recipe. This means, if you make a purchase through myВ links, IвЂ™llВ receive a small portion of your purchase at no extra cost to you.) These Korean noodles bowls are one of my familyвЂ™s favorites! Chicken made in the crockpot layered with stir-fried noodles, lettuce and sauces.
