Gochujang Pasta

The Asian version of Vodka Sauce - this Gochuajng Pasta is creamy, spicy, saucy and sweet!
This Gochujang Pasta is so easy to make. Like Vodka Sauce Pasta, it takes only about 15 minutes, which makes it perfect for a quick dinner recipe to have on hand. The gochujang makes this pasta spicy, and using coconut milk cuts it and makes it slightly sweet too.
The pasta melts right into the sauce I swear, that’s how silky and creamy it is. It’s such a fun fusion comfort food recipe!
