Open the tofu package (500g), empty the water, cut the block in half, then slice each half into smaller rectangles.
Slice ½ an onion into thin slices.
Slice 2 Cheongyang Chili Peppers into thin circles. (Or use 1 Jalapeno Pepper)
Dice 1 forearm-length stalk of Spring Onion into thin slices.
Peel 1 potato, then slice into thin sections.
Open a can of Spam, then dice ½ (or ⅓) of it into thin rectangles.

Take out a bowl and mix: Gochugaru Flakes (1.5 Tablespoons), Gochujang Paste (1.5 Tablespoons), Soy Sauce (2 Tablespoons), Sugar (1 Tablespoon), Minced Garlic (½ Tablespoon).

Take out a wide frying pan. Place the onion strips on the bottom. Then arrange the tofu pieces around the pan (but on top of the onion strips). Next, add the Spam & Potato slices in the middle.
Now, add exactly 1 Cup of water into the frying pan.
Next, add in ALL of the Spicy Jjageuli Marinade.
Place a lid-on to the pan and bring it to a boil.
Once it starts to boil, use a spoon and gently spread the spicy marinade evenly around the pan.
Now, turn the heat down to a medium-low heat.
Let it gently simmer away (without a lid) until most of the broth has evaporated away. It may take 7-10 minutes (but timing may vary).
Once most of the broth has evaporated away, garnish the pan with the freshly chopped green onion and chili peppers.
Place on a lid and give it one final minute... then it's ready.
Serve with a bowl of hot rice, and a fried egg if you'd like! Bon Appetit ya'll.
