Step 1
Cook noodles according to the package instructions, drain, and set aside.
Step 2
In a large pot, over medium heat, add in 1 Tbsp oil and the black bean paste (chunjang). Stir fry for about 3-4 minutes, until aromatic. Remove the sauce into a small bowl and set aside.
Step 3
Add the remaining 1 Tbsp of oil, and the cubed pork. Stir until the pork is about 3/4 cooked through. Add in the onion and stir for another 3-4 minutes. Next, add in the diced potato and zucchini and stir for about 4 minutes.
Step 4
Add in the stir-fried black bean paste from earlier. Stir and coat all of the ingredients with the sauce. Reduce the heat to low.
Step 5
Add in 1/2 cup of water or vegetable stock and cover with a lid and let it simmer for 10 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked through.
Step 6
In small bowl, combine the potato starch (or cornstarch) with water to make a slurry. Pour the slurry into the pot and continue to stir. It will begin to thicken. If it's too thick, adjust by adding in a little more water. When the sauce begins to bubble, turn off the heat.
Step 7
Portion the cooked noodles into bowls, and ladle the sauce over top. Garnish with sliced cucumber and a drizzle of sesame oil. Add a boiled egg if you like. Mix the noodles into the sauce well before enjoying. Best served immediately.
