Step 1
Mix flour with 0.5 cup water and a pinch of salt until shaggy. Knead 2 minutes until smooth, then let rest 5 minutes.
Step 2
Slice zucchini, carrot, and mushrooms into thin matchsticks. Heat 1 tbsp sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high.
Step 3
Fry vegetables in batches until edges curl and brown slightly, ~3 minutes total. Transfer to a plate, sprinkle with salt.
Step 4
Bring broth to a boil in a large pot. Tear dough into bite-sized pieces and drop them in, stirring gently until they float.
Step 5
Stir in gochujang until dissolved. Slide 2 eggs into the simmering broth and cook until whites set, ~2 minutes.
Step 6
Divide noodles and broth between bowls, top with fried vegetables, drizzle remaining sesame oil, and serve immediately.
