Instructions

  1. Make the sauce ahead in a separate bowl by adding and mixing 1 T each of soy sauce, sugar and sake (or mirin).
  2. Heat oil in a frying pan over med high heat.
  3. When oil is hot (when it flows around like water), add the shrimp to the pan and sauté for 3 min.
  4. Lower heat to medium and sprinkle sugar evenly on shrimp and sauté for another 3 min.
  5. Lower heat to low and sprinkle the sauce (made in step 1) all around the shrimp so that it’s all nicely mixed. Continue mixing and sauteing for 3 more minutes.
  6. Drizzle rice syrup (조청) or maple syrup on the shrimp mixture. Turn heat up to medium and continue stirring and frying for 2 minutes or until they look nicely browned.

Notes

  • You can save these in room temperature for a week or more and much longer in the fridge but won't taste as good. This served as a great side dish for the lunch I made with Miyeok Gook.
