Description

Garden fresh zucchini, quartered, and lightly sauteed in Korean gochujang paste. Spicy, sweet, and savory, making this a perfect side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole Small To Medium Sized Zucchini, Cut Into 1 Inch Coins, Then Quartered
  • 2 Tablespoons Korean Gochujang Paste
  • 1 Tablespoon Water
  • ½ Tablespoons Japanese Sushi Seasoning, Such As Furikake (optional)

Preparation

Heat a medium skillet on medium heat. Toss in zucchini and gochujang. Stir well and gently mash in the gochujang. Add water to make a thinner sauce. Continue cooking until zucchini is heated through and sauce coats zucchini. Toss in furikake, if using. This adds that additional distinct flavor that you find in a standard sushi roll.

Serve as a side to any dish. The end result is the perfect crunch of the zucchini, and then the awesome punch from the gochujang. Trust me, this Korean condiment will have you thinking endlessly of what it can be used on.
