Step 1

To prepare your spicy potato noodles, start by peeling your yellow potatoes, chopping them into small chunks & boiling a large pot of water. Boil your yellow potato chunks for about 15-20 minutes or until completely tender.

Step 2

Then, drain and transfer potatoes into a large bowl and mash finely. Add potato starch and water and mix and knead until a smooth dough is formed and the mixture doesn’t break apart.

Step 3

Next, boil another pot of water (big enough to fit all the potato noodles). Roll the dough into a long log and divide it into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into chopstick-length strips. They may break apart, but that’s okay. Boil the potato noodles for about 5 minutes or until the noodles are cooked and float to the top.

Step 4

Meanwhile, prepare a large bowl of cold water. Once the noodles are cooked, drain and transfer the noodles into the bowl of cold water.

Step 5

Prepare your spicy sauce! You can use store-bought sauce or make my Spicy Korean sauce by mixing together all the sauce ingredients in a bowl until smooth: gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, maple syrup or agave, garlic powder and sesame seeds.

Step 6

Now, add the cooked noodles into a large non-stick pan on medium-high heat, along with the spicy sauce. Add a splash of water, if needed. Stir for a couple of minutes to allow the spicy sauce to soak into the noodles! In terms of toppings, I recommend topping with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
