Squid Stir-Fry Recipe

Hello! Today, let's make a spicy and delicious squid stir-fry. This dish combines the chewy texture of squid with a rich marinade and savory vegetables, creating a perfect harmony of flavors. Let's check the ingredients and get started!

[Ingredients]

1 squid

2 tablespoons minced garlic

1 sliced onion

1 scallion

2 sliced chili peppers

Some chopped cabbage

2 tablespoons cooking oil

[Marinade]

1 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon red pepper flakes

1 teaspoon sugar

A pinch of black pepper

1 tablespoon sesame oil

Steps to cooking Squid Stir-Fry 

Clean the squid thoroughly. Remove the innards, cut the body in half, and remove the tail. Slice it into appropriate sizes and rinse them in water. Remove excess moisture and prepare the cleaned squid.

Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and stir-fry. Then add sliced onion and scallion, and continue stir-frying until they become translucent.

Add the squid to the pan and stir-fry over medium heat. It's best to cook the squid for about 3-4 minutes until it's cooked through. The key is to leave a slight chewiness in the squid, so it doesn't become rubbery.

Add cabbage and sliced chili peppers to the squid and continue stir-frying. Cut the cabbage into bite-sized pieces and the chili peppers will add spiciness. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to adjust the seasoning.

Mix all the marinade ingredients - gochujang, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, sugar, black pepper, and sesame oil - to make the sauce.

Serve the squid stir-fry with steamed rice and enjoy your delicious meal!
