- Hi everybody.
What are you doing today?
It's Saturday here.
Usually, I make rice with my rice cooker
but Saturday morning, relaxing,
and I make some brunch, and I decide to
make some rice, a small amount
with my pot.
And also, I make a soup.
Beef radish soup.
So I wanna make something fresh, salad-like.
Why don't we make Sangchu-geotjeori?
Sangchu is lettuce.
We make it geotjeori style.
Geotjeori is something like a Korean salad
mixed with Korean seasoning, hot pepper flakes,
soy sauce, garlic.
This is a ½ pound lettuce.
Actually it's around 10 oz, but after removing
this core, probably it'll be ½ pound.
So this is cold water, and
split this lettuce like this.
(water running)
And then wash it this way.
This lettuce is very clean, but sometimes
I see the dirt between the leaves.
We have to really clean nicely.
And then do one more time like this.
This bowl I'm going to use to mix.
And then let's just drain the water like that.
I'm going to just shaking.
Shaking like this, to remove excess water.
Shake, shake!
There you go.
This bowl we are going to mix all seasoning.
Super easy, you'll be surprised how fast it is.
Be sure to make this just before serving.
All families are just ready to eat.
All soup is done, rice is done,
or more side dishes done.
And then this is just before serving,
you should mix this.
Otherwise, the water come out.
Let's start with garlic, two garlic cloves.
Probably you guys are smashing garlic
just like me.
Are you? (laughs)
Garlic.
And green onion, chopped green onion.
And then this onion.
Onion, around ¼ cup amount, sliced thinly.
Just split this.
And then let's season.
Soy sauce, two tablespoons.
It's a dark soy sauce.
One, two tablespoons.
Little bit fish make it taste like
a little kimchi.
So one teaspoon fish sauce.
If you like to make a vegetarian version,
don't use the fish sauce.
Use just a little more soy sauce.
And then, we need some little sweet,
so one teaspoon sugar.
And then I'm going to use vinegar.
It's one tablespoon.
And then hot pepper flakes.
How much hot pepper flakes?
It depends on your choice.
I'm going to use two tablespoons,
but you can use one tablespoon,
or you don't have to use.
One, two.
So all delicious stuff is in here,
and then I'm going to add sesame oil, one tablespoon.
Mix.
We used some sugar here, so until sugar is well melted
you can mix this.
Okay, done.
Next, lettuce.
So I'm using green lettuce today.
You can use red leaf lettuce or Romaine,
any type of lettuce, you can use.
Or even the arugula you can use.
Or bok choy, you know, fresh bok choy you can eat it.
Any green vegetables you can use this.
But today, we make only sangchu-geotjeori.
It's a lettuce, lettuce geotjeori.
Some of lettuce like you got this,
and bite size pieces, so let's tear like this.
And here, one, two, three, four leaves
and just cut in half like that.
(lettuce ripping)
You could use a knife, cut into bite-size pieces
but I like this geotjeori style,
sangchu-geotjeori, especially, I like
the irregular kind of size.
Make it look really more tasty.
And then mix.
You can use your bare hand, or you can use
this disposable plastic glove.
It's for cooking, Korean grocery store you can
buy this one easily.
So usually, I just use my bare hand,
but today I feel like using this.
Why not?
Okay, like this, and mix.
Smells really good.
Sesame oil smell, and this mixture of sweet, sour
and garlicky sesame oil, this is a very familiar,
whenever I just smell this, my mouth waters.
Beautiful.
Okay, and then, this is sesame seeds.
Toasted sesame seeds, very crispy crunchy.
Let's use all the leftover.
See, huge platter.
This is sangchu-geotjeori, this is already look generous
and festive mood.
And then, see? (laughs)
And then I'm going to sprinkle more sesame seeds.
Oh my.
So this is the spinach.
I want more green stuff, so spinach side dish.
Sigeumchi-namul, I made this.
My rice is done, made with rice and barley
and black beans.
So this is my brunch.
Rice, soup, and sangchu-geotjeori.
I don't need kimchi today, because it
tastes like kimchi, and fresh kimchi.
And, spinach side dish.
So let me taste.
First I want some soup.
Ah, delicious, savory.
I used the brisket and radish, Korean radish.
And then first, I like to have some hot, warm rice.
Mmm.
(crunching)
Mmm.
So tasty, and crunchy, crispy,
and also sweet, sour, spicy and a little bit
like a fish sauce flavor.
It makes me not miss my kimchi,
because it tastes like kimchi.
Today we made really simple and delicious side dish.
And cheap!
Ingredients are so cheap.
Why not making this?
Make this sangchu-geotjeori, and enjoy my recipe.
See you next time!
Bye!
