Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Tossing the small octopus with chili powder first prevents moisture from leaking out during stir-frying and helps the seasoning adhere well.
  • Overcooking makes the small octopus tough, so stir-fry quickly over high heat for a short time.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a restaurant-style stir-fried small octopus that is spicy, chewy, and without excess liquid.
  • Those who want to make a foolproof seafood stir-fry using wok hei oil and a simple seasoning combination.
