One-Pan Creamy Shrimp & Dumpling Buldak
Ingredients
* 1 pack buldak noodles
* 6–8 dumplings
* 200 g shrimp, peeled
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 tbsp butter
* Buldak sauce packet
* Water
* 60–120 ml heavy cream
* 1–1½ cups shredded mozzarella
* 2 boiled eggs, halved
* 2 green onions, sliced

Boil the eggs, peel, and cut in half.
Boil the dumplings until cooked. Remove.
In another pan, melt butter, cook the garlic, add the shrimp until pink, then fry the boiled dumplings until golden.
Add the Buldak noodles to a pan with just enough water to cover them.
Add the spicy sauce packet and the carbonara powder packet right away, then stir over low heat.
Cook the noodles for 3–4 minutes, stirring until they’re tender and the sauce thickens.Stir in the heavy cream and most of the cheese until melted.
Add the shrimp and dumplings back into the pan and toss to coat.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top, cover until melted, then garnish with the halved boiled eggs and sliced green onions.
That gives you a creamy, cheesy, spicy one-pan buldak with no draining
