This Man's Cook Spicy Fish Cake Kalguksu

Cooking tips 💡

• Do not overcook the kalguksu noodles during boiling—overcooking causes the starch to break down when stir-frying, turning the noodles into a sticky, clumpy mass. Always cook them only to 70% doneness for a firm, springy texture.
• After adding the sauce, do not hesitate—immediately use the highest heat to evaporate moisture quickly. This prevents the noodles from becoming soggy and ensures the characteristic sticky, savory charred flavor typical of Chinese-style stir-fried noodles.
• For a bolder, more intense street-food-style heat, sauté the sliced green chili pepper along with the garlic in the chili oil at the beginning. This infuses the oil itself with a stronger spicy essence, amplifying the overall heat profile.
