Optional Add-Ons & Extras:
Toasted sesame seeds for extra crunch
Chopped green onions or cilantro for freshness
Crushed red pepper flakes or sriracha for added spice
A drizzle of sesame oil or soy sauce for enhanced umami flavor
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. This ensures even heating while keeping the noodles soft and flavorful.
Step 2: Prepare the Frozen Meal
Remove the meal from the box and plastic film, keeping the food inside its tray.
Lightly cover the top with foil to prevent moisture loss while the noodles and beef heat evenly.
Step 3: Air Fry the Bulgogi Yaki Udon
First Round: Cook at 375°F for 12-14 minutes with foil on top.
Second Round: Remove the foil and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and slightly thickened.
For Extra Flavor: Stir in a teaspoon of sesame oil or soy sauce in the last 2 minutes of cooking.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the noodles from the air fryer and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before eating.
Garnish with toasted sesame seeds, green onions, or chili flakes for extra flavor.
How to Serve This Bulgogi Yaki Udon
Classic Korean Style: Serve with kimchi and a soft-boiled egg.

Pro Tips for Best Results
Cover with foil for the first 12 minutes to keep the noodles tender.
For a slightly crisp beef texture, remove the foil for the last 5 minutes.
Want a deeper umami flavor? Stir in a teaspoon of miso paste or soy sauce before serving.
For added protein, top with a fried egg or extra bulgogi beef.
