- radish 1/3 of a medium-sized one
- sesame oil 3 tablespoons
- salt a pinch
- minced garlic 1 tablespoon
- beef dashi 1 tablespoon

Recipe 🍳
- Slice the radish into slightly thick matchsticks to maintain a satisfying crunch.
- Heat a generous amount of sesame oil in a pan and add the sliced radish, spreading it out evenly.
- Sprinkle a light amount of salt over the radish to help release its moisture and stop further cooking.
- Once the radish begins to turn slightly translucent, reduce the heat and add minced garlic, beef dashi, and monosodium glutamate for seasoning.
- When the radish releases its juices, increase the heat again and stir-fry briefly to evaporate excess moisture, finishing the dish.
- Cut the radish into slightly thick matchsticks.
- Add a generous amount of sesame oil to a pan and stir-fry the radish.

Cooking tips 💡
- For best results, avoid slicing the radish too thin—thicker pieces hold up better during cooking and won't break apart easily.
- Use plenty of sesame oil to enhance the rich, nutty flavor and maximize the sweet, savory aroma of the dish.
