Army Base Stew (Budae-jjigae)

부대찌개

Spam, sausages, instant ramyeon noodles, even cheese. The ingredient list makes no sense, but the flavor totally does. Extra noodles are a given, and it isn't over until you fry rice in the leftovers.

❝ Budae-jjigae began after the Korean War, when ham and sausages from US military bases went into Korean stew. Uijeongbu and Songtan both claim to be the original, and both happen to be towns near US bases. ❞
