Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Soaking potatoes in salt water beforehand prevents them from breaking apart during cooking due to osmotic pressure, resulting in a firmer, chewier texture.
  • Adding Korean pumpkin too early will cause it to become overly soft and mushy. It should be added midway through cooking, when the potatoes are partially cooked, to maintain the ideal texture.
  • Adding 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce enhances the flavor and umami depth compared to using regular soy sauce alone.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to create a vibrant meal with fluffy, spicy potato stew.
  • People looking for a foolproof recipe for clean, non-crumbly potato stew.
  • Anyone wanting to enjoy fresh seasonal vegetables like pumpkin and potatoes in summer.
