Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Korean BBQ Nachos
  1. Heat oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F. Carefully add wonton triangles in batches, frying for 3-4 minutes until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels while sprinkling with a pinch of salt.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter until bubbly. Stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, cooking for 2-3 minutes to create a roux. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of whole milk and 2 tablespoons of kimchi juice, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens and becomes smooth. Stir in 1 cup of shredded white cheddar until fully melted.
  3. On a large serving platter, create a layer of your crispy wonton chips. Drizzle the warm cheese sauce generously over the chips. Then, top with cooked bulgogi, diced Roma tomatoes, charred corn, and crumbled queso fresco. Finish by sprinkling with sliced green onions and fresh cilantro.
