- 1/2 medium onion
- 1 stalk green onion (white part mainly)
- Cooking oil, as needed
Special Sauce- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 0.5 Tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste – adjust spiciness)
- 1.5 Tbsp ketchup (for sweetness and flavor boost!)
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 Tbsp cooking wine (like mirin, for odor removal)
- 1.5 Tbsp oligosaccharide (or corn syrup, for gloss and sweetness)
- 0.5 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 0.5 Tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste – adjust spiciness)
- 1.5 Tbsp ketchup (for sweetness and flavor boost!)
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 Tbsp cooking wine (like mirin, for odor removal)
- 1.5 Tbsp oligosaccharide (or corn syrup, for gloss and sweetness)
- 0.5 Tbsp minced garlic
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the vegetables. Peel the onion, cut it into quarters, and then slice it thinly. Chop the green onion into large diagonal pieces, focusing on the white parts. Cutting them into bite-sized pieces suitable for children will make it even better.
Step 2
Now, let’s make the special sauce, the key to this delicious stir-fry! In a small bowl, combine 1 Tbsp soy sauce, 0.5 Tbsp gochujang, 1.5 Tbsp ketchup, a pinch of black pepper, 1 Tbsp cooking wine, 1.5 Tbsp oligosaccharide, and 0.5 Tbsp minced garlic. Mix everything thoroughly with a spoon. A well-mixed sauce will ensure even flavor distribution when stir-fried.
Step 3
To make the Vienna sausages look appealing, make 2-3 small diagonal cuts on each sausage. You can briefly blanch them in boiling water, or heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat and stir-fry the sausages, turning them until they are lightly golden brown. Be careful to avoid excessive oil splattering while cooking.
Step 4
After stir-frying the sausages for a bit, add the prepared onion and green onion to the pan and stir-fry them together. Stir-fry over high heat until the vegetables soften and the onions become translucent. Stir-frying quickly over high heat helps maintain the vegetables’ crisp texture.
Step 5
Once the vegetables start to turn translucent, pour in all the prepared sauce and stir-fry quickly over high heat. Continue to stir-fry for about 1-2 minutes, ensuring the sauce evenly coats the sausages and vegetables. Stir carefully to prevent the sauce from burning.
Step 6
Finally, sprinkle some sesame seeds for a pleasant appearance and nutty flavor. Lightly toss with chopsticks or a spatula, and your delicious sausage stir-fry is almost ready! Turn off the heat to finish.
Step 7
Transfer the finished sausage stir-fry to a nice serving dish for an appealing presentation. This makes a wonderful side dish that kids will absolutely love! It’s also delicious served over warm rice as a simple rice bowl.
