_______________________________________
RECIPE (2-4 servings)
INGREDIENTS:
450g/1 lb bone-in chicken
2 potatoes
1 carrot
6-10 garlic cloves
1 inch piece ginger
3 green onions/spring onions
1.5-2 cups water
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
Cooking oil
--sauce--
3 tbsp gochujang/Korean red pepper paste
3 tbsp soy sauce (light/regular)
1 tbsp vinegar
1.5 tsp sugar
1 tsp Korean red pepper flakes/chilli flakes
(Add more red pepper flakes/chilli flakes to make it extra spicy)
METHOD:
1. Cut potatoes, carrots and green onions/spring onions into large chunks
2. Slice garlic cloves in half and lightly crush the ginger (this will infuse flavor without having to bite into ginger pieces)
3. Sear chicken on both sides until lightly browned
4. Add the sliced garlic and fry for 1 minute
5. Add the sauce ingredients and stir fry for 2 mins. This will lightly caramelise the sauce and make the stew super delicious
6. Pour in 1.5-2 cups of water. You can add more at the end if needed
7. Bring it to a boil. Add crushed ginger, potatoes, carrots, cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through (about 30- 40 mins)
8. Once the chicken is cooked, taste the stew and adjust salt if needed. You can add more water if you want a thinner stew and cook it for a few mins
9. When the stew reaches your desired consistency, add the white part of green onions and simmer for 1 min
10. Add 1 tsp sesame oil, simmer for just 1 min and take off the flame
11. Serve it hot with rice and enjoy!

SUBSTITUTES:
• No gochujang?
There is no substitute for this as it is an essential ingredient. You can use miso but the flavour will be very different
• No red pepper flakes?
Some red chilli flakes or red chilli powder can be used
• What other vegetables can be used?
Onions, mushrooms and sweet potatoes. Bok Chou/cabbage can also be used but add it towards the end to keep a slight crunch
________________________________
TIPS:
• Large pieces of bone-in chicken works very well. Leg/thigh pieces are perfect for this recipe
• Adding lightly crushed ginger instead of chopped ginger gives the stew good flavor without having to bite on pieces of ginger
• Add more red pepper flakes/chilli flakes depending on your spice tolerance. You can also exclude it for a mild stew

Great recipe as always. Super easy instructions done in an informative way. What I like, is how your caption style has evolved as you make these videos, because now, in addition to the instructions, you also use them as a way to converse with the viewer. Love that added little touch. 🔥

[@tonyhartnett3376]

Love this. Thanks for uploading. I love garlic too, grow lots of it and have it year-round. Not on cornflakes though. 😜 Do you have any suggestions for alternative sauces to use as some of the ones here I might not be able to get readily in Ireland.
Happy Christmas and a peaceful 2023 to you.

[@breakthespice]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😍 The Korean red pepper paste has a very distinct flavour and might not be easy to replicate.. it’s spicy, salty, sweet and savoury so maybe a combination of tomato paste, soy sauce, sugar, chilli powder and miso might work (although I haven’t tried it).

[@tonyhartnett3376]

@@breakthespice Thanks. I'll give it a go and see what it tastes like. And I've got some miso in the fridge. 😵‍💫 Thanks again.
