Instructions
- Wash gobo with tawashi
- Cut gobo diagonally and then cut into match stick shapes.
- Put them in a bowl of water with 1tsp of vinegar to take the bitter taste off. But no longer than 5 minutes in order to avoid losing the Gobo flavour.
- Heat oil in a frying pan till smoke comes up slightly.
- Toss the well-drained burdock into the frying pan.
- Sautee the burdock for a few minutes and add sake to steam fry the burdock.
- Add the mirin, sugar, and soy sauce.
- Add the chili flakes and stir all together.
- Cook till sauce has reduced and thickened.
- Serve in a large bowl or serve in a small bowl individually.
Notes
- Just wash off soil. Peeling is unnecessary as it remove Gobo flavour as well.
- I like sweet Kinpira so I add plenty of sugar but if you like savoury flavour, reduce the amount of sugar. Sugar can be replaced with rice malt syrup, maple syrup and honey.
- If you like more spiciness, add more chilli or sprinkle like shichimi or ichimi togarashi. Ichimi is Japanese chilli powder, and shichimi is seven spice mixed chilli powder.
- Any meat can be add such as thinly sliced beef, pork and chicken etc.
