Creamy Carbonara-Style Bacon & Gochujang Udon
Put a Korean twist on your go-to carbonara with this spicy chipotle infusion. You’ll toss crispy bacon lardons and garlic with springy udon noodles before coating the lot in a velvety cheesy gochujang sauce. Banging.
You supply: pepper, olive oil. The figures below are for the dish cooked as instructed, so they count these rather than what arrives in the box.

Tell me when Creamy Carbonara-Style Bacon & Gochujang Udon changes
Recipes get reformulated and portions shrink without an announcement. We read this page every week anyway.
Every figure above is read from what the brand publishes, and brands change their pages without telling us. If something here does not match this meal as it is sold today, we would rather hear it than print it.
