Microwaved Spicy Namul (Like Ippudo's)

1. 1

   Wash the bean sprouts and put in the silicone steamer.

2. 2

   Microwave for 4 minutes.

3. 3

   After the sprouts are cooked through, the moisture will have come out, so lightly use a paper towel to pat dry.

4. 4

   While the sprouts are still warm, add the chicken soup stock granules and the spicy bean paste.

5. 5

   Because this step is a little messy, it's alright to either in the steamer or transfer the sprouts to a bowl.

6. 6

   Once the flavor has melded, add the sesame oil.

7. 7

   Last, sprinkle the sprouts with the white sesame seeds.

8. 8

   Mix in and chill the dish.

9. 9

   Sprinkle the dish with green onion to taste.

10. 10

    While this is delicious as a side dish on its own, I recommend topping on ramen!

11. 11

    I used these chicken soup stock granules from Topvalu (a Japanese store).

12. 12

    Each package contains 4.5 g of soup granules, so you can use them for many things.
