Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Heat a pan over medium-low heat with a generous amount of olive oil. Add the sliced onion and sauté until translucent and soft. It’s important to sauté the onion until its sweetness is fully released.
Step 2
Add the bell peppers and Vienna sausages (cut as desired) to the pan. For extra plump and clean-tasting sausages, briefly blanch them in boiling water before adding. Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables like carrots or mushrooms according to your preference.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the star sauce! Using a standard Korean rice spoon as a measure: combine 0.5 Tbsp Gochujang, 3 Tbsp Ketchup, 1 Tbsp minced garlic, and 1 Tbsp Oligodang. Mix them well. If you prefer extra spiciness, you can add 1-2 small chopped red or green chili peppers, but omit them if serving to children. Finally, add a pinch of black pepper. Sauce preparation complete!
Step 4
Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the sautéed vegetables and sausages. The key is to stir-fry quickly over high heat for about 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to coat the ingredients well.
Step 5
Finally, sprinkle a generous amount of sesame seeds for a nutty aroma, and your delicious Sausage and Vegetable Stir-Fry is ready! It’s wonderful served over hot rice or enjoyed with a cold beer.
