Add cabbage, saute for another 1 or 2 minutes, jja jang goes in, stir well to mix with vegetables.Then add water and sugar, let boil and add starch mixture, stir quickly or it will lump up.

Tips!
* I recommend Korean fresh noodle from Korean market, you can find in the refrigerator section.but if you're not near Asian market, you can use regular spaghetti, pasta or any choice of your noodle. Enjoy~ ^^
**There are two kinds of jja jang. One is plain(raw) bean paste and the other is sauteed version. You can buy plain one and cook with some vegetable oil. The reason to fry the paste is that raw bean paste has slightly bitter and sour taste.

if you don't like the smell of pork, add some cheong ju(rice wine, sake) or white wine before you put vegetables in. You can add shrimp, squid, and sea cucumber etc...
