Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding all the vegetables at once lowers the pan temperature and releases moisture, so add them in small batches while maintaining high heat.
  • Frying the doubanjiang in oil like a deep-fry brings out the rich, nutty flavor of the bean protein and a smoky, burnt aroma.
  • The finished jajang thickens as it cools, so adjust the amount of starch slurry accordingly.

Recommended for

  • people who enjoy spicy Chinese dishes.
  • those who want to make a smoky, wok-charred jajang at home.
  • those looking for a unique, hearty one-bowl meal.
