Recipe 🍳
- Cut the front leg meat for soup into bite-sized pieces suitable for stew.
- In a pot, add a little cooking oil, then add the cut meat, jin soy sauce, gochujang, gochugaru, mirin, minced garlic, doenjang, and minced ginger. Stir-fry until the surface of the meat is cooked.
- Once the seasoning is absorbed and the meat is stir-fried, add an appropriate amount of store-bought beef bone broth and water.
- Add the diced potatoes, bite-sized zucchini, onion, tofu, and diagonally sliced green onion and cheongyang chili pepper into the pot.
- While the stew is bubbling, grate the remaining 1 potato finely using a grater or blender.
- When the potatoes and vegetables are tender, add the grated potato to the broth and mix well.
- Simmer until the broth thickens and becomes smooth, then finish the stew.
- Stir-fry the bite-sized front leg meat in a pot with seasonings like gochujang and doenjang.
- Add beef bone broth and water, then add sliced potatoes, vegetables, and tofu. Boil until tender.
- Finally, add the grated potato to the broth to thicken and enrich the stew, then finish.
Cooking tips 💡
- Grating raw potato at the end instead of using flour gives a cleaner and stickier broth texture.
- Stir-frying the meat with the seasoning paste directly in oil, instead of dissolving it first, helps remove meaty odors and maximizes the flavor of the seasoning.
