Treat your ingredients with care...
- Beef — For the best results, choose a tender cut of beef such as ribeye or sirloin. Thinly slice the beef against the grain to ensure tenderness.
- Korean chili paste (gochujang) — Adjust the amount of gochujang according to your spice preference. Add more for a spicier dish or reduce the amount for a milder flavor.
- Potatoes — To prevent the potatoes from becoming mushy, add them to the pot halfway through the cooking process.
Tips & Tricks
- If you prefer a thicker stew, you can mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and add it to the pot during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
- Serve the Korean-style Gulyás with steamed rice or Korean-style noodles for a complete meal.
- Feel free to add other vegetables such as mushrooms or zucchini to customize the dish to your liking.
- For an extra burst of flavor, garnish the stew with a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will continue to develop, making it even more delicious the next day.
Serving advice
Serve the Korean-style Gulyás in individual bowls, accompanied by steamed rice or Korean-style noodles. Garnish with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
Presentation advice
To make the dish visually appealing, arrange the sliced bell peppers, carrots, and potatoes on top of the stew. This will create a beautiful contrast of colors and textures.
