Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Using dark brown sugar gives the dish a beautiful, dark color.
  • The squid must be stir-fried quickly over high heat to get a smoky flavor and prevent water from releasing.
  • Soaked glass noodles will become mushy if stir-fried for too long, so stir-fry them for only 4-5 minutes and finish as soon as they are cooked.
  • Since the squid was seasoned strongly to balance the glass noodles, taste the dish after completion and add more soy sauce and sugar if it is too bland.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a spicy squid dish together with chewy glass noodles.
  • Those looking for a special bar snack.
  • Those who want to easily make a unique japchae at home.
