Serving: 4
Ingredients:
For the stew:
-2 potatoes
-1/2 onion, slived
-2 chili peppers (jalapenos or spicy pepper of choice)
-1 stalk onion scallion, chopped
-6oz can spam or 1/2 regular sized cup
-3 cups water
Sauce
-1 tbsp minced garlic
-2 tbsp soy sauce
-2 tbsp gochugaru
-1 tbsp gochujang
-1/2 tbsp sugar
-1/2 tbsp doenjang (soy bean paste)
*Vegan note: Use vegan spam
Direction:
Cut the potatoes into large matchbox sticks slices. Slice the onion, chop the chili peppers and the green onion.
In a medium sized pot, lay the potatoes down first, then top with onions and peppers.
Take the spam and smash it. (Baek Jong won puts the spam in a bag and smashes it with his palm like we saw him tell Jungkook to do.) It is faster than chopping.
Lay the spam on top of the onions and peppers in the pot. Throw in the shopped green onion. Add in all the sauce ingredients. Fill with water, until all the ingredients are submerged.
Bring to a boil and simmer for 10-15 minutes until all the veggies are tender. Remember that if you cook it longer, the ingredients will add more flavor.
Serve hot with a bowl of white rice. Enjoy!
