About this dish

Without the tripe of sundae-gopchang-bokkeum, this stir-fry leans on cabbage, onion, and scallion for a lighter plate.

The vegetables are cut thick so they still have bite after cooking, and soy sauce in the gochujang glaze makes it as salty as it is spicy.

Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Slice 300 g of sundae into bite-size pieces that are not too thin, so they hold together in the pan.

    Cut the cabbage, onion, and scallion fairly thick, leaving enough size for texture after stir-frying.

  2. 2

    Mix 1 tablespoon gochujang, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon gochugaru until smooth before cooking.

    Breaking up the paste now helps the sauce coat quickly later and reduces the chance of scorching in the hot pan.

  3. 3

    Heat the pan over medium heat, then add 1 tablespoon cooking oil.

    Add the cabbage and onion first and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until the edges look slightly translucent and excess moisture has reduced.

  4. 4

    When the vegetables have softened slightly, add the sundae and spread the pieces out in the pan.

    Keep medium heat and turn them gently for only 1 to 2 minutes, just until the outside firms a little.

  5. 5

    Add the prepared sauce and lower the heat to medium-low.

    Do not press or mash the sundae; fold everything gently for 1 to 2 minutes, until the sauce coats the vegetables and sausage evenly.

  6. 6

    Add the scallion at the end and stir-fry for about 1 more minute.

    Once the scallion smells fresh and the sauce no longer sits wet on the bottom of the pan, turn off the heat and serve.

Tips

Do not over-stir-fry; sundae can split.
Cooking vegetables first helps sauce coat better.
