I first tried Korean Stir-Fried Sweet Potato Noodles when my manager at work brought it for a potluck. It was literally one of the best things I’ve tried, made me go back for refills. Each time we have a potluck, we keep asking her to make it. I stole this recipe from her and lately have been practicing at home to get a handle of it.

It’s perfect for hosting, because it makes a huge portion. And so far, I only heard the best feedback about the dish.

It was so nice to have Tim, my hubby, at home while I was preparing this dish. He took over the camera, so I have a ton of photos to share with you.

Tip: You can find the sweet potato noodles at most Asian stores.
