I've been able to increase my vegetable intake more easily ever since I started making a basic namul sauce or namul base. It's really convenient for bento or when you're busy. It also makes me happy that you can easily turn this into bibimbap by adding cooked ground meat to mixed namul!

The bean sprouts will break easily so don't squeeze them much. It's a bit of a hassle, but soak the spinach stems in hot water first. This little extra time is what makes the dish delicious. The bean sprouts will be crunchy without being watery if you boil them starting from cold water. It's worth a try~. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

3

Add in the spinach stems once the water begins to boil gently.
4

Add in all of the spinach leaves right before it boils, and give it a quick stir.
5

Let it boil for a few seconds, then drain in a colander. Don't let it soak in the water, or it will become watery. Lightly shake the colander up and down to drain the water and cool down the vegetables.
6

Drizzle with sesame oil while it is still hot. Add the namul stock after it has cooled, but it's a good idea to add it in a bit at a time while checking the taste.
7

The flavor will intensify as time passes, so it's good to season lightly. You can always add more seasoning later on!

Tip: When you don't have any namul base sauce - mix the following. Salt: 1/2 teaspoon; pepper: a small amount; sesame oil: 2 teaspoons; MSG: a small amount; garlic: to taste

You're finished. It's so simple that even my cooking-impaired daughter was able to make it.
