Avocado is not a traditional Korean ingredient. However, recently more and more Koreans are enjoying avocado in their daily meals since it is supposed to be healthy and good for their diet. So, I want to introduce one of the many yummy ways to enjoy avocado in Korean meals as a side dish. The nutty flavor from the avocado is mixed with tasty soy sauce, onion, and hot pepper to make a great combination. It is very hard to not make it because it is very delicious.😉

Step 1

To make the special sauce for this side-dish, combine ⅓ cup soy sauce, ¾ cup water, 2 Tbsp sugar, and 2 tsp vinegar. Mix them well until the sugar dissolves.

Step 2

Now, chop the veggie ingredients such as ½ cup worth of an onion and 2 Tbsp worth of each the green hot peepers and red hot peppers thinly.

Step 3

Next, get 2 large avocados. It is nice to use them for this recipe a little firm but not completely ripened. To remove the skin, cut the avocado in half.

Step 4

Remove the seed with a knife. (You can see the video instruction about how to do it.)

Step 5

Scoop out the avocado with a spoon (now the avocado skin is off).

Step 6

Slice the avocados into ½ inch thick pieces.

Step 7

Prepare a glass rectangular storage container and place the avocado in it.

Step 8

Put all the chopped veggies evenly on top of the avocados.

Step 9

Pour the sauce over the veggies.
