Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- jajang ramen (or spicy red broth ramen) 1 pack
- chili tuna 1 can
- onion 1/4 piece
- cabbage 1 piece (same amount as onion)
- minced garlic 0.5 tablespoon
- oyster sauce 1 tablespoon
- green onion a little
- pepper a little
Recipe 🍳
- Slice the 1/4 onion and cabbage thinly, preparing them in roughly equal amounts.
- Heat generous amount of cooking oil in a pot, then add the minced garlic and prepped onion and cabbage.
- Sauté over high heat until the vegetables turn slightly dark and develop a tangy, charred aroma.
- Add the prepared can of chili tuna and stir gently, mixing it through the vegetables and giving it another quick fry in the oil.
- Pour in water equivalent to 3 paper cups, then add both the ramen solid ingredients and powder seasoning, and bring to a boil.
- For deeper seafood flavor and umami richness, add 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce (or dried anchovy soy sauce), and mix well.
- Once the broth begins to bubble vigorously, add the ramen noodles and cook until they are firm and chewy.
- When the noodles are done, sprinkle generously with chopped green parts of green onion and pepper to finish.
- In a pot, sauté minced garlic, sliced onion, and cabbage together until just before charring to develop a strong smoky aroma.
- Add the chili tuna and lightly stir-fry, then pour in water and season with ramen seasoning and oyster sauce.
- Once the broth boils, add the noodles and cook through, then transfer to a bowl and top with green onion and pepper.
Cooking tips 💡
- The key step that defines the authentic jjamppong flavor is thoroughly sautéing the onion and cabbage in oil until they turn a deep golden brown.
- For an enhanced hangover remedy, consider adding a few slices of green chili, a handful of mung bean sprouts, or some young soybean sprouts according to your preference—this combination delivers a truly exceptional result.
