    South Korean Jap-Chae pronounced "chap-chae",  is a delicious glass noodle dish made with sweet potato starch. The dish includes lots of vegetables and typically made with thin slices of rib-eye that can be found at your local Asian grocery store along with the special noodles. Of course if you want to make the dish vegetarian just leave out the meat.  South Koreans love sweet potato in many forms and this dish is a good reason why. This South Korean Jap-Chae has become a new family favorite. It can easily be made Plant Paradox friendly by using grass fed meat and coconut aminos instead of soy. Enjoy!
