Notes

Adjust the spice level by adding more or less gochujang, depending on how mild or spicy you prefer the dish. It’s a great option for meal prep, making it easy to prepare ahead and enjoy throughout the week. Adding an egg is a simple way to boost the protein content and make the meal more filling. For the best taste and texture, it is best served fresh.
