    Title: Chuotang (Denjang Soup With Ground Fish)
    Categories: Korean, Seafood, Stews
    Yield: 1 Batch

    500 g Eel (1 lb)
    3 tb Denjang
    200 g Cabbage (7 oz)
    100 g Sprouts (3 oz)
    50 g Chives (2 oz)
    1 sm Chilli
    1 lg Spring onion

    You first need to remove the muddy smell of fish, prior to 2 hours of
    cooking, put live fish inside the container with salt and put the lid
    on. It will make fish to spit the mud in them.

    Prepare stock. Fish or vegetable stock is desired.

    Put the fish in blender and grind until smooth, you can leave it
    coarse for texture.

    Chop all vegetables except sprouts. Blanch sprouts tender.

    Preheat pot, add denjang, cabbage, chive, chili and cook for 1
    minute. Do not brown them.

    Add ground fish and stock, and bring up to boil.

    Bring the heat down and simmer for 10 minutes. Taste it, if it lacks
    umami or salty taste, add 1 tb soy sauce.

    Add sprouts and spring onion. Boil for 1 minute on high heat.

    Top with ground sesame seed, coriander, perilla leaf.

    Serve with rice or potato.

    Notes:

    It's a stew, you can use any vege you desire.

    The original recipes in Korean only use loach, but you can use eel.
