Add one cup of water and leave to soak 30 minutes.

  • 1 cup water
Cook over medium-high heat about 10 minutes, then stir it over.
When the bottom is still a little hard, lower to really low heat and simmer a little longer until done.
For nurungji, cover the lid and cook a few more minutes on very low heat so the bottom browns.
  • water
Put some water in, lift the crust out by hand and remove from the heat.
