A 2-minute super-fast perilla leaf side dish using just one can of commercial gochujang tuna, without the hassle of making a seasoning sauce.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Avoid adding too much liquid from the can, as it can make the dish soggy—use mostly the solid tuna flakes.
  • A golden tip is to stack the perilla leaf stems in a zigzag pattern so they don't clump together and are easy to separate.
  • It tastes great right away, but if you chill it in the fridge, the perilla leaves become firmer and offer a different, delightful texture.

Recommended for

  • Pro solo cooks who find even measuring out a seasoning sauce recipe too bothersome.
  • Anyone wanting to enjoy the combination of sweet-spicy tuna and fragrant perilla leaf ssam in one easy dish.
