Method

Prepare Hawga Changa

  1. 1

    Cook the Filling

    In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and bell peppers, sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic, cook for another minute. Add ground beef, cook until browned. Drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Season the Filling

    Stir in cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until spices are fragrant.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Changa

    Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Add a portion of the beef mixture and a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Fold the tortilla over to create a pocket and press down to seal. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  4. 4

    Cook the Changa

    In a clean skillet, heat a little oil over medium heat. Cook each changa for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Make Yukgaejang

  1. 5

    Prepare the Broth

    In a large pot, add beef and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 1.5 hours until beef is tender.

  2. 6

    Shred the Beef

    Remove the beef from the pot, shred it using two forks, and set aside. Strain the broth to remove impurities and return it to the pot.

  3. 7

    Add Vegetables and Seasoning

    To the strained broth, add scallions, minced garlic, gochugaru, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 8

    Finish with Bean Sprouts

    Add shredded beef back to the pot along with bean sprouts. Simmer for an additional 10 minutes until everything is heated through.
