Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pack Buldak noodles, any variety
- 2 tablespoons butter, for sautéing
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons Kewpie mayo, adds rich, creamy texture
- 1 tablespoon Buldak seasoning powder, adjust to taste
- 2 tablespoons Buldak sauce, adjust for spice preference
- 1/4 cup milk, for creamy sauce
- 2 slices cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, melts beautifully
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 1 large flour tortilla, 10-inch size
- 1 small flour tortilla, 6-inch size
- 1 tablespoon chili oil, optional, for extra heat
- 3 tablespoons mayo, for creamy Buldak sauce
- 1 tablespoon Buldak Carbonara sauce, for luxurious sauce coating
Instructions
- Cook the Noodles: Bring a pot of water to a boil and add your Buldak noodles, cooking until about halfway done, approximately 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside on a plate.
- Sauté the Garlic: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pan over medium heat, then add 2 cloves of minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
- Create the Sauce: Add 3 tablespoons Kewpie mayo, 1 tablespoon Buldak seasoning powder, and 2 tablespoons Buldak sauce to the pan, stirring to combine. Pour in 1/4 cup milk and mix until creamy and smooth, about 1 minute.
- Combine with Noodles: Add your half-cooked Buldak noodles to the sauce and toss until completely coated, cooking for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons mayo with 1 tablespoon Buldak Carbonara sauce, stirring until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- Start with Cheese: Lay a large tortilla flat on a clean surface and place 2 slices of cheddar cheese in the center.
- Layer the Noodles: Add the creamy Buldak noodles on top of the cheese, followed by 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions and a drizzle of chili oil if using. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the noodles.
- Add the Sauce: Drizzle the creamy Buldak sauce on top of the cheese and noodles, then gently place a small tortilla over the filling to create a barrier.
- Fold and Seal: Fold the edges of the large tortilla toward the center, overlapping them slightly to completely cover the small tortilla and seal all the delicious filling inside.
- Toast the First Side: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and place the Crunchwrap seam-side down. Toast for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Flip and Finish: Carefully flip the Crunchwrap and toast the other side for another 2-3 minutes until equally crispy and cheese is fully melted inside.
- Slice and Serve: Remove from heat and slice in half while still hot. Serve immediately while the cheese is gooey and the tortilla is at peak crispiness.
