Ingredients
Scale
Spicy Noodles
2 Samyang carbo noodles (or your spicy instant noodle of choice)
Korean Corn Cheese Topping
1.5 cup frozen or canned corn
1 cup grated white cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1 tbsp Japanese mayonnaise
1 tsp sugar
Instructions
Cook Noodles: Prepare the instant noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and transfer the noodles to a serving plate.
Prepare Corn Cheese Mixture: Heat a pan over high heat and add the corn, white cheddar, mozzarella, Japanese mayonnaise, and sugar. Listen for a sizzling sound indicating the mixture is heating up, then reduce the heat to medium.
Melt Cheese and Combine: Stir the mixture occasionally to ensure the cheese melts evenly. When the cheese is fully melted, turn off the heat and let the mixture rest for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Assemble and Serve: Pour the hot corn cheese mixture generously over the cooked noodles. Optionally garnish with dried parsley for a fresh touch and serve immediately to enjoy the rich, spicy, and creamy flavors.
Notes
Use white cheddar for a sharp flavor that complements the spiciness of the noodles.
Mozzarella adds a stretchy, creamy texture essential to Korean corn cheese.
Japanese mayonnaise adds a slight tang and creaminess; substitute with regular mayo if unavailable.
Using frozen corn is preferred for texture, but canned corn works well too.
Dried parsley is optional but adds a nice color contrast and aroma.
