Main Ingredients:
- 3 yellow croaker fish
- 2 cups korean radish (10 oz)
- 1/2 onion
- 2 green onions
- 1 hot pepper (optional)
Broth Ingredients:
- 4 cups water
- 1 dried anchovy pack (6 dried anchovies)
- 5 pieces kelp (1 x 2 inch)
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp soup soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tbsp hot pepper oil
- 1 tbsp red pepper powder
- 1 tbsp cooking wine
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1/4 tsp minced ginger
Steps:
- To make the broth, start with 4 cups of water, and then add 1 dried anchovy pack and 5 pieces of kelp. Boil it on medium-high for 5 minutes.
- After rinsing 3 yellow croakers, cut the tail and fins with scissors.
- 5 minutes later, remove the kelp from the broth, and boil for 5 more minutes.
- Meanwhile prepare the vegetables. Peel off the radish skin and remove the bad parts. Cut it into 1 x 2 x 1/2 inch pieces.
- Slice 1/2 of an onion into 1/2 inch pieces.
- Cut 2 green onions into 1/2 inch pieces.
- Cut 1 hot pepper into 1/2 inch pieces. The pepper is optional.
- After the boiling is finished, remove the anchovy pack.
- Add all of the ingredients for the seasoning to the broth. 2 tbsp of soup soy sauce, 1 1/2 tbsp of hot pepper oil, 1 tbsp of red pepper powder, 1 tbsp of cooking wine, 1 tbsp of minced garlic, and 1/4 tsp of minced ginger.
- Then add the radish and cook for several minutes with lid on it until it starts to boil again.
- Add the fish and onions.
- Cover the lid and cook for about 10 minutes on high. In this step, if you like spicy food, add 1 tbsp of red pepper powder. Adjust the saltiness if you want.
- About 10 minutes later, add the chopped green onions and hot peppers into the soup. Cook 2 more minutes on high and then turn off the heat. Be careful because it is easy to add too much pepper in the soup.
