    Great recipe! I recommend using a white onion and frying it until browned in canola oil, then adding garlic and stirring until browned. Also, you can just saute in the spinach instead of putting it in boiling water.

    Jelisa, girl, this was GOOD! As I ate, I kept thinking of different ways to eat the sauce. It would be really good with eggrolls instead of Duck Sauce or plain soy sauce. Or those Pan Fried dumplings. Or as a marinade for chicken. The possiblities are endless! I even thought about adding a little bit of minced ginger, YUM! Thanks for posting this. My tummy is full and my mind is working overtime!

    Excellent, DH said it was exactly like what he had in Korea. I steamed the spinach instead of blanching it, less water to squeeze out.
