Main Ingredients
- Crab sticks (imitation crab meat) 180g
- Seaweed flakes (Gim-jaban) 2-3 Tbsp
- Perilla oil 1/2 Tbsp
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare 180g of crab sticks, easily found at any grocery store. These are the stars of our simple recipe!
Step 2
Carefully remove the outer plastic packaging from the crab sticks. As you can see, the preparation is incredibly straightforward.
Step 3
Cut the crab sticks into pieces approximately 5cm long. Cutting them to a moderate thickness, rather than too thin, will enhance their texture.
Step 4
Using a knife, shred the cut crab sticks lengthwise according to their natural grain. This will create a texture reminiscent of real crab meat, making the dish more appealing.
Step 5
If there are any larger clumps, gently pull them apart with your hands, following the grain. This ensures the seasoning coats the crab sticks evenly.
Step 6
Now it’s time to add the dressing. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of perilla oil over the shredded crab sticks. The unique nutty aroma of perilla oil will elevate the flavor profile.
Step 7
Next, add 2-3 tablespoons of crispy and savory seaweed flakes (Gim-jaban). You can adjust the amount of seaweed flakes to your preference.
Step 8
Finally, gently mix all the ingredients together! You can use chopsticks or your hands to toss everything until well combined. And there you have it – your delicious Crab Stick and Seaweed Flakes seasoned with Perilla Oil! It’s perfect as a side dish for rice or as a delightful snack with drinks. Enjoy!
