Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • The secret to crunchy myeolchibokkeum is not using corn syrup. Corn syrup becomes sticky when heated and hardens into clumps later, so sugar is essential.
  • Depending on your air fryer's heat, the top may burn. At the halfway point (around 5 minutes), take out the basket and shake it to mix for even cooking.

Recommended for

  • Those who always fail with stove-top myeolchibokkeum, ending up with hard clumps or burnt batches.
  • Those who prefer a crispy, spicy, and nutty myeolchibokkeum that stays crunchy like a snack.
  • Those who need a budget-friendly side dish recipe that comes together in 10 minutes without using the stove.
