Budae Jjigae (Korean Army Stew) | Itaki Pro Electric Lunch Box Recipe
Budae Jjigae is better known as army stew. This is one of my personal favorite Korean food. When I make this, I tend to over fill the pot with too much ingredients. (Yes I am greedy that way!) Cooking it in the itaki solves this problem as the metal pot has a finite volume. Considering the itaki is able to achieve the exact same flavor of the traditional budae jjigae, I am both amazed and happy. This stew is so versatile that you can add any ingredients that you like and enjoy a delicious and nutritious meal.
