Instructions

  1. Prepare main ingredients. Finely chop Kimchi, onion, bacon. Thin slice the mushroom.

  2. Boil some water in a pot and add a dash of salt. Once it starts to boil add the spaghetti.

  3. While the spaghetti is getting ready, get other ingredients ready. Heat the wok on high heat and melt the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the mushrooms and stir it well until cooked. When the mushrooms are cooked, take them out and put them onto a plate.

  4. Add the bacon in an emptied wok and stir it until cooked. Add the onion. Cook further until the bacon and onion crisps. Once they are cooked, take them out and put them onto a separate plate.

  5. Add the kimchi in an emptied wok and stir it until cooked. (Add some vegetable oil if required). Once the Kimchi is cooked, add the mushroom from step 3 and stir them together for 30 seconds. Then reduce the heat to medium to low.

So good I almost cried

This was my first kimchi recipe that I have tried. WOW! It was so good! I spiralized a medium zucchini and added it in place of the spaghetti. I also added a little water to help the zucchini cook. I put mozzarella cheese on top and sprinkled green onion on top. The green onion added a fresh taste to the dish. I had to convert to pounds and ounces and adjusted the recipe for one serving, but it was totally worth it. Best flavors ever and I can't wait to make it again!

At the rate I'm going, I will eventually have made all your korean recipes at least once!

LOVED this one too. With your ingredients I added my own bok choy kimchi, tofu, garlic and a mix of zoodles + spaghetti (and some of the kimchi juice with fig jam) - ridiculously delicious. Oh, and cooked the veggies with the bacon fat.

Thank you for creating this and all your other fantastic recipes.

Made this with Angel Hair pasta and without the mushroom because I couldn’t go to the supermarket that day. This is surprisingly tasty and easy to make! I love how the sourness of aged kimchi and the sweetness of gochujang go together really well. 100% will try this again!

I found some kimch in the back of my frig. that was a little to strong, and this was the perfect recipe to use it in. The bacon, mushrooms and butter were the perfect combo for the extra tangy kimchi. Can't wait to make it again!

Finally made this tonight, and it was SO good. I'm used to cooking with Korean ingredients but this was insanely delicious and was such a wonderful surprise. I didn't expect it to have such depth. I did add the splash of sesame oil at the end and I didn't regret it!
