Stir-Fried Dried Anchovies

Myeolchi Bokkeum

Ingredients

• 1 cup Small dried anchovies
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Corn syrup (or rice syrup)
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
• 1 clove Garlic (minced) (optional)

Instructions

1. Dry-roast the anchovies in a clean skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, tossing frequently, until they are slightly crispy and fragrant. Remove and set aside.
2. In the same pan, heat vegetable oil. Add garlic (if using) and stir for 15 seconds.
3. Add soy sauce, corn syrup, and sugar. Stir until the sauce bubbles and becomes glossy.
4. Add the anchovies back in and toss to coat evenly. Remove from heat. Drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle sesame seeds. This keeps well in the fridge for up to a week.
