For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of gochujang (Korean chili paste) along with the chili powder. Tofu can be added for additional protein, slice firm tofu into cubes and add along with luncheon meat. Serve hot with a bowl of steamed rice and an assortment of Korean side dishes (banchan) for a complete and satisfying meal.
