If you're keen on Korean BBQ, you doubtless have viewed this Korean spicy inexperienced onion salad before. It is in all probability one of the foremost famous Korean BBQ associate salad. Its Korean identify is Pajeori (파절이), meaning “seasoned inexperienced onion”.

I love having Pajeori with Korean red meat stomach (Samgyeopsal, 삼겹살) because it spices up the non-marinated meat very well. You can often purchase the pre-sliced inexperienced onion, watching just like the underneath picture, from a Korean grocery shop or possibly at a Korean butcher. They use a different gadget known as inexperienced onion roll slicer. The inexperienced onion comes out like spaghetti noodles.

If you can’t purchase the pre-sliced inexperienced onion, you want to thin slice it utilizing your kitchen knife or a different software like a inexperienced onion slice cutter. It can take 10 to 15 mins of slicing, depending in your knife skills.

I offered this cutter from a native Daiso store, namely to make this salad. While there are a couple of drawbacks, it’s fairly convenient to use. Though you want to be very cautious whilst dealing with it. I discovered that the inexperienced facet of inexperienced onion is simpler to slice than the white facet utilizing this cutter.


One factor you must rely whilst you make this inexperienced onion salad is, you must blend the dressing with the inexperienced onion simply earlier than you’re about to eat. It wilts quick (within 3 to 5 mins). Nonetheless, it's going to be nonetheless delicious! I wish you take pleasure in my recipe. Your subsequent Korean BBQ must be even extra awesome!
