11. Cover the lid on the wok or frying pan and put it on high heat. Once it is boiled, lower it to mid heat for 3 minutes. Then lower it to low heat for 4 minutes until there is almost no more soup left on the bottom. It is better to have a glass lid to easily check inside the pan. For these 7 minutes, keep watching the pan.

12. When you open the lid, you will see other ingredients are well cooked and 시금치 turns into bright green. Don’t wait until시금치 to turn its color to yellow.

13. Mix all together with 참기름, 통깨, 계란 지단. Season some 소금 and 후추 to suit your taste.

14. A Final tip for left over 잡채: Soak Vietnamese rice paper into the water à put left over 잡채 and rolls this into a spring roll shapeà put oil around the frying pan and grill the rolls. Yum~!!
