  • 1tsp gochujang (Korean chilli paste)
  • 1tbsp of ketchup
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 large garlic cloves, crushed

Method:

  1. Heat a medium saucepan, add oil, and sauté onion for 2 minutes, followed by garlic. Cook for 1 more minute and add the pepper, sauté for 2 more minutes.
  2. Add all the other ingredients and simmer gently until syrupy, so around 3-4 mins. Take off the heat and set aside.
  3. Season the chicken wings with salt, pepper, and grated ginger. Toss the chicken with the cornflour until completely coated.
  4. Heat about 2cm of vegetable oil in a largepan over medium/high heat. Fry the chicken until crisp, turning halfway. Remove from the oil and place on kitchen paper. Leave to cool slightly (around 2 mins).
  5. Reheat the sauce and toss the crispy chicken in it. Tip into a bowl and top with the sesame seeds and sliced spring onions.

Bibimbap

Ingredients – Serves 2:

  • – Carrot, Broccoli, Green Beans, Red Pepper, Cabbage, Cauliflower etc
  • – Sesame oil
  • – Soy Sauce to Marinade the pork or tofu
  • – Rice 60g per person uncooked
  • – Spring onions
  • – 2 eggs

Method:

  1. Slice all your vegetables into thin strips or similar, you want to line these up in your bowl.  The slower cooking veg, like carrots, should be sliced thinner.  Set aside.
  2.  
  3. Boil your rice as per instructions but add some sliced spring onion and black sesame seeds into the uncooked rice.  Once cooked, drain, and keep warm.
  4.  
  5. In medium frying pan, heat teaspoon of sesame oil, then cook first your pork, it will only take a couple of minutes – set aside; then carefully cook your vegetables picking the slowest cooking first.  Keep separate in the pan, and once cooked, set aside.
  6.  
  7. Finally fry two eggs – you should be able to use the same pan throughout – add a little extra oil if it is drying out.

To Serve: Half fill bowls with the rice, then position the cooked meat and vegetables around it.  Finally place egg on top, sprinkle with any garnishes – chilli flakes, spring onion etc

Drizzle your bibimbap sauce (see below) on top and enjoy smashing the runny yolk into all the ingredients with the fiery sauce bringing all together.

Serve with pickled vegetable salad.
