Ingredients
- 4 lbs sayote
- 2 tbsp salt
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 3 cloves garlic Minced.
- 1 tsp ginger Minced.
- ½ c green onions
- ⅓ c Korean chili pepper flakes Gochugaru.
- ¼ c fish sauce
Instructions
- Slice the sayote and mix with salt and sugar. Let it rest for about 30 minutes. Mix every 5 - 10 minutes. A lot of water will be drawn out of the sayote. Don't throw this away as you'll use it later.
- In another large bowl mix together the garlic, ginger, green onions, chili pepper flakes, and fish sauce. Use a glove or the chili pepper will burn your hand.
- Add the sayote (but not the water) into the bowl of spicy mix. Mix until the spicy mix is well distributed. Add ½ c of the leftover water if you feel it needs more water to mix thoroughly. Add another ½ c if you think it needs more.Note: In this case, Mom actually used up all of the leftover water.
- You can eat this right away, but it's best if you wait at least 2 days.
