- 2 cups napa cabbage or regular cabbage, cut into bite sizes

- 3 Mexican green onions or 1 bundle of regular green onions, cut into half lengthwise then 2-inch long pieces

For the Sauce & Stock
- 5 to 7 cloves garlic, chopped
- 3 to 4 tbsp gochugaru, Korean red pepper flakes (If you don’t’ want spicy, omit it)
- 2 tbsp Yondu
- 2 tbsp Korean soup soy sauce
- 1 tbsp maesilaek, Korean preserved green plum extract
- 4 cups vegetable or mushroom stock
Instructions
- Spread beansprouts on the bottom of the shallow large pot. Arrange the vegetables in the pot.
- In a mixing bowl, combine garlic, gochugaru, yondu, soy sauce, and plum extract. Thin it out with 1 cup of vegetable stock and pour it over the pot. Pour the rest of the vegetable stock into the pot and cover with a lid.
- We usually serve this jeongol (hot pot) to the dinner table and eat while it’s cooking. So if you have a portable gas stove, please do so! It’s so much more fun!
- Bring it to boil over medium to medium-high heat and when it starts to simmer then increase heat to high and bring it to hard boil. Keep boiling for 5 minutes or until dumplings are fully cooked and vegetables are softened. It’s ready to eat! Enjoy!
