Jung Ho-young's Napolitan Pasta

Cooking tips 💡

• Do not fully cook the pasta—only boil for about 4 minutes—to maintain a perfect texture that absorbs sauce from the pan without burning during the final stir-fry.
• Using ketchup alone can result in overly sweet and sharp flavors, veering toward a simple sausage and vegetable stir-fry. Mixing in half tomato sauce creates a much deeper, more thoughtful flavor profile.
• Adding butter after turning off the heat helps tame the sharp tang and bitterness of ketchup, wrapping the sauce into a smooth, unified, and velvety consistency.
