Cut potatoes, carrots and green onions/spring onions into large chunks 2. Slice garlic cloves in half and lightly crush the ginger (this will infuse flavor without having to bite into ginger pieces) 3. Sear chicken on both sides until lightly browned 4. Add the sliced garlic and fry for 1 minute 5. Add the sauce ingredients and stir fry for 2 mins. This will lightly caramelise the sauce and make the stew super delicious 6. Pour in cups of water.

Once the chicken is cooked, taste the stew and adjust salt if needed. You can add more water if you want a thinner stew and cook it for a few mins 9. When the stew reaches your desired consistency, add the white part of green onions and simmer for 1 min 10. Add 1 tsp sesame oil, simmer for just 1 min and take off the flame 11. Serve it hot with rice and enjoy! ________________________________ SUBSTITUTES: • No gochujang? There is no substitute for this as it is an essential ingredient. You can use miso but the flavour will be very different • No red pepper flakes? Some red chilli flakes or red chilli powder can be used • What other vegetables can be used? Onions, mushrooms and sweet potatoes. Bok Chou/cabbage can also be used but add it towards the end to keep a slight crunch ________________________________ TIPS: • Large pieces of bone-in chicken works very well. Leg/thigh pieces are perfect for this recipe • Adding lightly crushed ginger instead of chopped ginger gives the stew good flavor without having to bite on pieces of ginger • Add more red pepper flakes/chilli flakes depending on your spice tolerance. You can also exclude it for a mild stew _______________________________________ #chickenstew #chicken #korean #koreanfood
