Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Stir-fry the onions for a long time until they are almost mushy to achieve a natural sweetness and thick consistency that isn't cloying.
  • Unlike chunjang (black bean paste), jjajang powder doesn't need to be stir-fried for a long time; simply mixing it gently in oil is enough.
  • The finished all-purpose jjajang sauce pairs wonderfully not only with noodles (Hong Kong-style noodles, kalguksu noodles) but also with fried rice cooked with egg yolk or stir-fried pork for japchae.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to achieve a deep, restaurant-style flavor with commercial jjajang powder.
  • Those who want to make one versatile sauce to use in various dishes like jjajangmyeon and fried rice.
  • Those who want to quickly complete a delicious meal by maximizing the flavor of onions and green onions.
