FAQ
What can I use as a substitute if I do not have oyster sauce?
Since regular soy sauce (jin-ganjang) is listed with the seasoning ingredients, you can substitute regular soy sauce.
How should I prepare hard rice cakes?
Microwave them for about 2 minutes to soften them up before adding them to the stir-fry.
Are there any ingredients that are good to add besides the basic vegetables?
If you have green cabbage, cut it into thick pieces and stir-fry it together; it pairs very well.
What should I add if it needs more saltiness after finishing?
Taste it, and if it feels too bland, just add salt to adjust the seasoning.
