Korean Stir-fried Squid
Enjoy the Korean style stir-fried squid with spicy Korean chili paste and chili flakes. It's spicy but absolutely delicious with rice.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (about 2) squid cleaned and sliced
- 1 small carrot thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion sliced
- 1-2 tablespoon grape seed oil
- 2 tablespoon Korean chili paste (gochujang)
- 1 1/2 tablespoon Korean chili flakes (gochugaru)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 cloves garlic finely minced
- dashes black pepper
- 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 green onion chopped
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a mixing bow, mix Korean chili paste, chili flakes, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, pepper, and sesame oil until it becomes smooth paste.
- Add the squid slices and toss well together to incorporate with the sauce. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a skillet over med-high heat. Add the onion and carrot and saute until just soft, about 2-3 minutes. Add the squid mixture to the skillet and stir-fry quickly until the squid is cooked enough, about 2-3 minutes. Do not overcook the squid. It will get tough.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle with green onion and sesame seeds. Serve hot over rice.
