This is a routine dish in our family as we try to avoid using artificial seasoning. I wanted to deepen the flavor so I modified the seasonings and settled on this recipe.

Try using the miso (rice miso) that you have at home instead of the doubanjiang if you don't like it spicy. Adults could also pour some ra-yu on top just before eating.
If you use 1/2 teaspoon of doubanjiang and 1/2 teaspoon of miso, you get a slightly spicy flavor.
Adjust the flavor to your preference!
Try with 50 g of ground pork. Recipe by Nyagochansukisuki
