Spicy Buldak Bokkeum Myeon Recipe: The Viral Korean Fire Noodles from “Earth Arcade”


Discover the viral Buldak Bokkeum Myeon recipe from Korean TV show “Earth Arcade.” A creamy, spicy fire noodle dish with cheese, egg yolk, and mayo that fans worldwide are recreating.


The Global Craze for Korean Fire Noodles

Korean Buldak Bokkeum Myeon (fire noodles) has taken the world by storm. Popularized through online challenges and social media, this spicy instant ramen is a favorite among food lovers who enjoy heat and bold flavors. The recipe featured on the Korean variety show Earth Arcade elevated the classic fire noodles into a creamy, restaurant-worthy dish.



Essential Ingredients for the Recipe

To recreate this viral version, you only need a few simple ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • ½ onion (sliced)

  • 1 pack of Buldak Bokkeum Myeon

  • 1–2 slices of cheese

  • 1 egg yolk

  • 2 tablespoons vegan or regular mayonnaise
    These additions create balance, making the spicy noodles smoother and more enjoyable.



Step One: Sauté the Onions

Start by slicing half an onion and sautéing it in olive oil until golden brown. This adds sweetness and depth to the dish. Caramelized onions bring out a smoky-sweet flavor that pairs beautifully with the fiery chili base of Buldak noodles.



Step Two: Cook and Mix the Noodles

Boil the noodles until nearly cooked, leaving just a little water in the pot. Add the spicy sauce packet and the sautéed onions. Stir well, then melt in 1–2 slices of cheese. The cheese transforms the sauce into a creamy, carbonara-like texture, reducing the sharp heat while adding richness.



Step Three: Add Toppings for Extra Flavor

Place the noodles in a bowl, then add finishing touches. Top with a raw egg yolk for creaminess, sprinkle furikake or seaweed flakes for crunch, and drizzle mayonnaise for balance. These toppings not only enhance the flavor but also make the dish visually appealing.
