Description

A simple and flavorful dish featuring broccoli coated in a spicy gochujang sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang paste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Steam or blanch the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, mix gochujang, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and water until smooth.
  3. Heat a pan over medium heat and add the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Toss the broccoli in the sauce until evenly coated.
  5. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust gochujang quantity based on your spice preference.
  • For extra crunch, roast the broccoli instead of steaming.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
