Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare one pack of sundae. If your sundae includes the blood sausage filling (like ‘gan’), it will add even more richness! Slice the sundae into bite-sized pieces. (Tip: Slicing hot sundae can make it fall apart easily. Let it cool slightly before slicing for a neater appearance.)
Step 2
Soak the glass noodles and rice cakes in warm water for a few minutes to soften them, making them easier to cook. Drain them well in a colander. This prevents them from sticking together and ensures they cook evenly.
Step 3
Chop the vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Shred the cabbage and onions. Slice the carrot thinly or into matchsticks. Cut the green onions diagonally. For the perilla leaves, stack them, roll them up tightly, and slice them thinly into strips. The perilla leaves are best added at the end to preserve their fresh aroma.
Step 4
The secret to its delicious spiciness! Let’s make the seasoning sauce. In a bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of gochugaru, 3 tablespoons of gochujang, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, a pinch of black pepper, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (or corn syrup), and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
Step 5
Now, all the preparations for our delicious stir-fried sundae are complete! Heat a large wok or pan over medium-high heat and add a generous amount of olive oil. First, add the prepared vegetables (cabbage, onion, carrot) and stir-fry until they start to soften but retain some crispness. (Tip: Using a wok or a wide, flat-bottomed pan makes stir-frying much easier.)
Step 6
Add a little olive oil to the heated pan. Add the chopped cabbage, onion, and carrot. Stir-fry over medium-high heat. It’s important not to overcook them; you want them to remain slightly crisp. (Tip: A wok or a large skillet is ideal for stir-frying as it allows for even heat distribution and easy tossing of ingredients.)
Step 7
Once the vegetables are partially cooked, add the softened glass noodles and rice cakes. Pour in all the prepared seasoning sauce. Stir everything together well to ensure the sauce evenly coats all the ingredients.
Step 8
With all ingredients and sauce mixed, cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer gently for about 5 minutes. This step allows the flavors to meld and the sauce to penetrate the ingredients deeply, resulting in a richer taste.
Step 9
After 5 minutes, remove the lid and add the sliced sundae and blood sausage filling. Now it’s time for the sundae itself to absorb the delicious sauce. Gently stir-fry to combine everything without breaking the sundae.
Step 10
Finally, add the thinly sliced perilla leaves and green onions to elevate the flavor of the sundae stir-fry. The fragrant aroma of perilla leaves and the fresh bite of green onions balance the dish perfectly. Mix gently just to combine.
Step 11
Voila! Your spicy, sweet, and chewy stir-fried sundae is beautifully ready!
Step 12
Transfer the finished stir-fried sundae to a serving plate. Garnish generously with toasted sesame seeds for a final touch. Presentation makes the meal even more enjoyable!
Step 13
Featuring chewy sundae, tender rice cakes, and plump glass noodles! The perfect harmony of spicy sauce and aromatic perilla leaves makes this dish an excellent choice for both a drinking snack and a satisfying meal. Enjoy this golden recipe and have a wonderful time!
