How to Use Korean Gochujang Paste

I decided to use the Gochujang paste in a ground beef and vegetable stirfry mixed with some left over rice.

​It was a simple, unimpressive operation – Just bought some ground beef at Lidl as well as their frozen asian vegetable mix and cooked them up in our stainless steel pan along with the bit of leftover white rice that was hanging out in the fridge

Added some generous squeezes of the Gochujang paste to the mix and tossed into a bowl. I actually didn’t find it too spicy so I added a little extra swirl in my bowl.

Lidl Vitasia Korean Style Gochujang Paste Review

I enjoyed this Korean culinary diversion.

I think it’s really fun that Lidl brings such a wide range of internationally inspired products throughout the year. So even if you can’t travel, you can always travel through food. 😉

Rating: 3/4 – It’s good, I would rebuy from time to time

This Korean Gochujang paste was purchased at Lidl, a grocery store in Portugal.
