Description[]

Transparent noodle with beef and vegetables.

Jabchae

Japchae (also spelled jabchae or chapchae) is a Korean dish made from cellophane noodles (called "dangmyeon"), which are stir fried in sesame oil with sliced beef and various vegetables (typically thinly-sliced carrots, onion, spinach, and mushrooms), flavoured with soy sauce, and sweetened with sugar. It is usually served garnished with sesame seeds and slivers of chili. It may be served either hot or cold.

This dish is served at Korean parties and special occasions, with seasonal vegetables added.

Japchae is most commonly served as a side dish, though it may also be served as a main dish. It is also often served on a bed of rice; together with rice it is known as japchae-bap (잡채밥), bap (밥) meaning "rice."
