Eomuk Bokkeum (Korean Stir-fried Fish Cake, 어묵볶음)

How I cook it

1. 1.

   Blanch the fish cakes in boiling water for about 30 seconds, or rinse them under hot running water to remove excess surface oil. If they are frozen, thaw them first according to the package instructions.

2. 2.

   Cut each fish cake into small rectangles or triangles (about 10 pieces per sheet). Slice the onion and carrot thinly.

3. 3.

   In a bowl, mix all sauce ingredients in advance to save time while cooking.

4. 4.

   Heat oil in a pan, stir-fry the fish cakes, onion, and carrot. When the onion begins to soften, add the sauce and stir-fry over medium heat.

5. 5.

   If you prefer it a bit softer or saucier, add about 50 ml of water.

6. 6.

   Remove from heat, sprinkle sesame seeds (optional), and serve!
