Cooking tips

  • Always soak potatoes in water right after cutting to remove surface starch, preventing the sauce from becoming cloudy or sticking to the bottom of the pot during cooking.
  • Keep the heat high from start to finish—this ensures the broth reduces quickly and the potatoes remain intact, developing a firm, chewy exterior.
  • Add chili peppers only at the very end, as adding them too early causes them to turn yellow and become tough; this preserves their bright color and crisp texture.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a spicy, tangy gochujang-based potato stew instead of the usual sweet-savory soy sauce version.
  • Those looking to create a rich, varied dish with soft potatoes, chewy fish cake, and crunchy chili peppers all in one bowl.
