👨🍳 Інструкції
- 1
Prepare the monkfish: Rinse the monkfish fillets under cold water and pat them dry. Cut the fish into bite-sized pieces, about 1.5 to 2 inches. Set aside.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Prepare the soybean sprouts: Rinse the soybean sprouts thoroughly under cold running water. Trim off any roots or damaged sprouts. Set aside.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Make the spicy sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the gochugaru, doenjang, minced garlic, soy sauce, sugar, and black pepper. Mix well until a paste forms. Gradually whisk in the water or anchovy broth until smooth.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Assemble the stew: In a large, wide pot or a Korean earthenware pot (ttukbaegi), spread the soybean sprouts evenly across the bottom. Arrange the monkfish pieces on top of the sprouts.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Pour the prepared spicy sauce evenly over the monkfish and sprouts. Add the cut scallions on top.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 6
Braise the stew: Cover the pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the monkfish is cooked through and tender, and the sprouts are tender-crisp. Stir gently once or twice during cooking to ensure even distribution of the sauce.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 7
Thicken and finish: If you prefer a thicker sauce, stir in the cornstarch slurry during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Once the fish is cooked and the sauce has reached your desired consistency, stir in the sesame oil. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 8
Serve hot: Ladle the Agujjim into bowls, ensuring each serving has plenty of monkfish, sprouts, and sauce. Garnish with extra chopped scallions or sesame seeds if desired. It is traditionally served with steamed rice.
