A simple shrimp jjamppong with deep, rich broth and spicy, smoky flavor using only shrimp and two vegetables

Ingredients needed 1 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not add gochugaru too early, as it burns easily and becomes bitter; instead, add it midway through stir-frying and mix quickly.
  • Do not pour all the water at once—start with half to create a slightly thick broth, which helps extract more natural umami from the vegetables and shrimp.
  • Depending on what you have in the fridge, adding leftover vegetables like pumpkin, carrot, or mushrooms can enhance depth and richness.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a smoky-flavored jjamppong at home in just 15 minutes with minimal prep.
  • Those who want to enjoy both the clean, refreshing umami of shrimp and a spicy kick at the same time.
