I normally make a quick kimpira burdock dish but one day I received high-quality burdock roots. I didn't want to waste by making my standard dish, so I took the time to make this delicious kimpira. Since then this recipe has been our regular in my family. This is a very good recipe so please have a try!!

*At Step 2, you can boil water on the stove and make dashi stock in a saucepan. Taste the dashi first and if you think it might be too strong, the taste in the resultant dish will be perfect. *Adjust the amount the chili pepper to your liking. For 2-3 servings. Recipe by Maa-a
