Main Ingredients- 1/2 radish (approx. 649g)
- 50ml water
Seasoning & Others- 2 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 Tbsp salt (scant, approx. 3.5g)
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 Tbsp salt (scant, approx. 3.5g)
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the radish thoroughly and peel it. Then, thinly julienne the prepared radish. Using a peeler can help achieve thin and uniform slices.
Step 2
In a heated pan, add 2 tablespoons of sesame oil and 1/2 tablespoon of salt (scant). The nutty aroma of sesame oil will whet your appetite.
Step 3
After evenly mixing the sesame oil and salt in the pan, let it sit for a moment to allow the seasonings to meld slightly.
Step 4
Add all the julienned radish to the pan.
Step 5
Turn the heat to high and stir-fry the julienned radish continuously for about 4 minutes. During this time, a little moisture will release from the radish, and it will begin to soften.
Step 6
Once the radish has softened a bit, add 50ml of water. This will help keep the namul moist and create a refreshing broth.
Step 7
After adding the water, continue to stir-fry for another 2 minutes, and your delicious stir-fried radish namul will be ready.
Step 8
Turn off the heat and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds on top. It’s best to transfer the finished namul to a serving dish immediately. Leaving it in the pot can cause the radish to become mushier due to residual heat, so be mindful of this. Enjoy your meal!
