Main Ingredients- 23 Vienna sausages (adjust quantity as preferred)

Seasoning- 2 Tbsp Mirin (or cooking sake)
- 1 tsp Ketchup
- 1 tsp Oyster sauce (for umami boost!)
- 2 Tbsp Mirin (or cooking sake)
- 1 tsp Ketchup
- 1 tsp Oyster sauce (for umami boost!)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the Vienna sausages. Make 2-3 cross-shaped scores on the surface of each sausage. This helps them beautifully unfurl as they cook, making for a more appealing presentation and enhanced flavor. Be careful not to cut too deep. Prepare all 23 sausages this way.
Step 2
Next, prepare the scallions. Use mostly the white parts and chop them into large pieces, similar in size to the sausages, to maintain a good texture. The green parts can have a strong flavor, so focus on using the white sections.
Step 3
Now, heat a pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and the chopped scallions. Sauté for about 3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened, allowing their sweet aroma to release. The scallions should become fragrant and slightly golden.
Step 4
Once the scallions are fragrant, add the prepared Vienna sausages to the pan. Stir-fry them together with the scallions, ensuring they don’t stick to the pan.
Step 5
As the sausages cook and the scores start to open up, add the mirin (2 Tbsp), ketchup (1 tsp), and oyster sauce (1 tsp) to the pan. Stir well to combine all the seasonings. Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, or until the scored parts of the sausages have fully opened and are nicely browned. Ensure the sauce coats everything evenly.
Step 6
Your delicious Vienna Sausage and Scallion Stir-fry is ready! Serve it hot in a pleasing arrangement on a dish. It’s a fantastic rice accompaniment or a delightful appetizer with your favorite drinks. Enjoy your meal!
