Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding too many vegetables at once lowers the pan temperature and causes them to release too much liquid, so stir-fry in small batches.
  • Since chunjang is primarily made from wheat flour, it can stick to the pan easily—stir quickly to prevent burning.
  • After adding the starch slurry, bring the mixture to a boil above 80°C (176°F) to ensure it thickens properly and doesn't become watery later.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to recreate the smoky flavor of restaurant-style ganjjajang at home.
  • Those who prefer a clean, thick black bean sauce without excess liquid.
