Sweet potato noodles are a type of glass (vermicelli) noodles made from sweet potato starch – just one ingredient! They are gluten-free by nature. Find them at a good Asian grocer or easily online. Once cooked, they have an interesting chewy and silky texture with a very mild taste.
The Method:
- Cook the glass noodles – done in just 6 minutes
- Add “sauce” ingredients together. This includes Hoisin Sauce ~ try my homemade recipe
- Roast Veggies for Garnish… they are important to the dish! You’ll be roasting sweet potatoes and eggplant
- Make the Sesame Tofu for garnish… optional but love!
- Stir Fry the Veggies and Aromatics, add the Stir-Fry Sauce and Noodles
- Add fresh Mung Bean Sprouts and Scallions for crunch & flavor
- Serve in individual bowls or one large one. Add the Garnishes: Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Eggplant, (Sesame Tofu if using)
Similar to the Korean Japchae noodle dish ~ sweet potato glass noodles are stir fried with vegetables and meat, one of Korea’s best-loved dishes.
BUT with some major updates!
I’ve omitted the beef and added too many vegetables. My noodle dish adds Hoisin Sauce in the stir-fry sauce for a little sweetness and body.
Korean sweet potato noodles (glass noodles) when compared to wheat noodles, they are lower in glycemic index because they contain complex carbohydrates.
A healthier alternative to rice and yellow noodles, sweet potato noodles is a staple in Korean food which is slowly going mainstream thanks to its slippery, slightly chewy texture. Even though glass noodles are high in carbohydrates, they do not cause a spike in blood sugar, are naturally fat free – and I’m loving that they are made from one ingredient.
Many well-stocked grocery stores and Asian specialty stores have started selling these noodles in the Asian section. Also see Amazon for a good selection. You can also find packages that are non GMO.
When it was first invented in the 17th century, Japchae was a noodle-less dish.
Nowadays, the main highlight of the dish is glass noodles, which is made from sweet potatoes, along with colorful vegetables and well seasoned meat. As you see – my recipe is Vegan.
