Steps
- 01
Peel and cut potatoes into 1.5–2 cm pieces. Slice the onion and chop the scallion and optional chili.
- 02
Roughly crumble the canned ham with a spoon. Mix gochujang, chili flakes, soy sauce, doenjang, sugar and garlic into a seasoning paste.
- 03
Place potatoes, onion and ham in a saucepan. Add the seasoning and 480 ml water, spreading the ingredients evenly.
- 04
Bring to a boil, then partly cover and simmer over medium heat for about 15–25 minutes until the potatoes are easily pierced and the sauce thickens and reduces.
- 05
Add scallion and optional chili and bring back to a brief simmer. Serve with rice; taste before adding any salt because the ham and pastes are already salty.
Before you cook
Confirm that the canned ham is a fully cooked ready-to-eat product and handle it hygienically after opening. Simmer until potatoes are fully cooked. Refrigerate leftovers in shallow containers within 2 hours. Check packaged ham and sauces for soy and wheat.
