Ingredients

  • ½ lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • ½ lb squid, sliced into rings
  • 2 tbsp gochujang (Korean red chili paste)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring 6 cups salted water to a boil in a large pot over high heat, ~6 minutes.

    Add shrimp and squid to boiling water. Cook until shrimp turns pink and squid curls, ~2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add noodles to the same pot. Boil until al dente, ~5 minutes, stirring gently to prevent sticking.

    Drizzle sesame oil over the top. Divide into bowls and garnish with scallions.
