Main Ingredients- 1 head of well-fermented aged kimchi (or 1/2 head, adjust according to size)

- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 Tbsp anchovy sauce or sand lance sauce
- 2 Tbsp oligosaccharide or corn syrup
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- Pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Gently rinse the aged kimchi under running water to lightly remove excess kimchi brine. Be careful not to rinse too much, as it can diminish the kimchi’s flavor. (If it’s too sour, you can soak it in cold water for about 10 minutes before rinsing).
Step 2
Cut the kimchi into bite-sized pieces. Cutting them too thinly might cause them to break apart during stir-frying, so aiming for a thickness of about 1-1.5 cm is recommended. Place all the cut kimchi into a pan.
Step 3
Add all the seasoning ingredients to the kimchi in the pan. This includes 1 Tbsp anchovy sauce, 2 Tbsp oligosaccharide, 1 Tbsp minced garlic, and a pinch of black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly so the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Step 4
Add about 2-3 Tbsp of cooking oil or perilla oil generously. Then, stir-fry over high heat. Constantly mix the kimchi with chopsticks or a spatula for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the kimchi to soften and absorb the seasonings evenly. This will result in delicious stir-fried aged kimchi.
