This Man's Cook Garaetok Dakbokki

Frying gochujang in oil first to eliminate its raw, sticky texture, creating a deep, rich flavor reminiscent of street-side stall dakbokki

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Sautéing gochujang and sugar in oil first eliminates the raw aroma and enhances the rich, savory flavor typical of street-style dakbokki.
  • Use fine red pepper powder instead of coarse for a deeper, cleaner color and a smoother, less grainy appearance in the sauce.
  • Garaetok tends to stick easily to the pan during cooking, so gently stir it with a spatula or chopsticks periodically to prevent burning.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to recreate the thick, rich taste of street-side stall dakbokki at home.
  • People looking to use up leftover garaetok after holidays.
  • Fans of generous, hearty street food with large chunks of fish cake and green onion.
