A versatile, budget-friendly, umami-packed side dish that maximizes flavor and value by using canned tuna instead of beef.

Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Removing all the tuna oil ensures the dish doesn’t become overly fishy and allows the clean, savory taste of the gochujang to shine.
  • Avoid adding sesame oil, as it shortens shelf life and causes the aroma to fade quickly; instead, use crushed sesame seeds for a richer, longer-lasting flavor.
  • Once cooled completely, store the finished stir-fried gochujang in the refrigerator—its flavor will remain stable for up to one month.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a go-to seasoning they can easily mix into rice without worrying about side dishes every day.
  • People who find beef dishes too heavy or expensive and want to make something quick using canned tuna at home.
  • Students living alone or anyone needing a hearty, long-lasting side sauce for daily meals.
