Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Hello everyone! Today, we’re making a super easy and simple stir-fried dried pollack dish that’s perfect as a side for rice. Let’s get started with this golden recipe that even those living alone can master!
Step 2
First, carefully remove any hard bones from the dried pollack flakes with your hands. Then, rinse them lightly under cold water and soak for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to soak them for too long, or they’ll become mushy.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the delicious seasoning sauce. In a small bowl, combine 2 tsp soy sauce, 2 tsp gochugaru, 1 tsp gochujang, 1 tsp sugar, and 1 tsp minced garlic. Stir well with a spoon until the sugar dissolves.
Step 4
Heat a pan over medium-low heat and add a little cooking oil. Sauté the chopped scallions and minced garlic until fragrant. Once the aroma of scallions and garlic is strong, add the dried pollack flakes (gently squeezed to remove excess water) and stir-fry, coating them with oil. When the pollack flakes start to curl slightly, they’re ready for the next step.
Step 5
Now, pour the prepared seasoning sauce evenly into the pan. Reduce the heat to low to prevent burning and stir-fry while continuously mixing with a spatula, ensuring the pollack flakes are evenly coated with the sauce. Think of it as dressing the pollack flakes in a nice sauce.
Step 6
Once the pollack flakes are well-coated with the sauce and look delicious, turn off the heat and drizzle in 1 tsp of fragrant sesame oil. Adding sesame oil will enhance the flavor and make it even tastier.
Step 7
And there you have it! A delicious, rice-stealing stir-fried dried pollack dish is complete! Enjoy it with a bowl of hot rice.
