Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, trim about 1cm from the base of the enoki mushrooms. This helps the mushrooms hold their shape and not fall apart during cooking.
Step 2
Gently rinse the prepared enoki mushrooms under running water. Be careful not to wash them too vigorously, as this can cause them to clump. Lightly shake off excess water.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the delicious sauce! In a bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of gochujang, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 1.5 tablespoons of sugar, 2 tablespoons of chili oil, and 3 tablespoons of Buldak sauce. Mix everything thoroughly until smooth and well combined, ensuring there are no lumps.
Step 4
Arrange the drained enoki mushrooms in a single layer in a wide frying pan. Pour the prepared spicy and sweet sauce evenly over the mushrooms. Finally, drizzle about half a rotation of cooking oil around the edge of the pan; this adds an extra layer of flavor and helps with sautéing.
Step 5
Sauté the enoki mushrooms over medium heat. The mushrooms will release their natural moisture, which will combine with the sauce and naturally thicken. Gently toss and stir with a spatula to ensure the sauce coats the mushrooms evenly as they cook. Keep an eye on the heat to prevent burning.
Step 6
Once the enoki mushrooms have absorbed the sauce and have a glossy appearance, turn off the heat. Sprinkle the finely chopped green onions over the top for a beautiful finish. Your delicious Buldak-style braised enoki mushrooms are now ready!
Step 7
Serve this over warm rice for a delightful meal, or enjoy it as a flavorful side dish or appetizer. Enjoy your delicious creation! 🙂
