From mykoreaneats 10 years agoIngredients
- approx. 1/2 lb. saewoo (shrimp, shell-on) shopping list
- 1 lb. jukumi (baby octopus) shopping list
- 3 tbsp gochujang (red chili pepper paste) shopping list
- 1 tbsp brown sugar shopping list
- 1 tbsp soy sauce shopping list
- 1/2 tbsp vinegar shopping list
- 1/2 tbsp sesame oil shopping list
- 4 garlic cloves, minced shopping list
- 1/2 cup water shopping list
- 1 tbsp deulkkae garu (perilla seed powder) shopping list
- 1/2 onion, diced shopping list
- 3 green onions, diced shopping list
- 1 tsp sesame seeds (to garnish) shopping list
- 8 oz. somyeon (thin wheat flour noodles; optional) shopping list
- 1 tbsp olive oil shopping list
How to make it
- 1. If using frozen shrimp and octopus, make sure to dethaw at regular temperature until soft but yet cold.
- 2. Using a non-sticky skillet or frying pan, saute the minced garlic on medium-high heat with some olive oil. When fragrant and slightly browned, add in the shrimp and baby octopus, stir fry 5 minutes.
- 3. Mix in the sauce ingredients, onions, and green onions. Stir fry for about 10 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Water can be added if more sauce is desired.
- 4. Meanwhile, cook the somyeon noodles separately following the directions on the package. Rinse well under cold water, set aside.
- 5. Plate accordingly on a serving dish and add the somyeon noodles on top of the stir fry. Garnish with sesame seeds and green pepper slices.
- *As with most Korean dishes, make sure to sample the sauce several times throughout the cooking process and adjust according to preference. You can adjust the taste by playing with some of the basic ingredients: spiciness (gochujang or gochugaru), sweetness (sugar), sourness (vinegar), and even nuttiness (sesame oil or deulkkae garu).
