So I made this today… Japchae. I followed the recipe over here: https://www.maangchi.com/recipe/japchae Her recipes are so easy to follow and everyone I’ve tried has worked out incredibly well. The only thing I messed up in this recipe is that I totally forgot spinach. In fact, I had gone out yesterday to pick-up some ingredients, walked by the spinach like 5x but still forgot it. Sigh. I was also a bit disappointed at my boys – they wanted to help, which was great, but rather than slice the mushrooms, I got chunks. But it won’t affect the overall taste, I’m just a stickler for following recipes as closely as possible. I also added green and yellow peppers not just red peppers as her recipe calls for. As well, rather than use white mushrooms, I had some cremini mushrooms and used up those. As with all recipes I try to keep carbs low, so did use sugar (as it’s called for) but used only 1tbsp instead of what the recipe calls for. Turned out amazing and my boys absolutely loved it, so it goes into the dinner menu rotation. If you want the nutritional value, you can find it here. submitted by /u/throwawayaccount931A |
