Step-by-step method
- 01Heat a large frying pan over medium heat, when hot add oil, swirl to coat, add mince and press down with spatula and then leave it alone. Cook for 2 minutes until browned then flip and brown other side. Start to break up with a spatula and once mince is cooked through add 2 tbsp ssamjang paste and ¼ cup water. Stir to combine, add a little extra water if needed. Remove from heat, stir through spring onions.
