Ingredients

Instructions

1. Halve the zucchini lengthwise (quarter it if it is round), then slice it crosswise about 1/4 to 1/3 inch thick.
2. Use the saeujeot as is or chop it finely; it is very salty, so start with 2 teaspoons and add more only if needed.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon cooking oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini, garlic and saeujeot (or salt or fish sauce) and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
4. While stir-frying, add 2 tablespoons water. Add another spoonful or two of water if the pan gets dry.
5. Add the scallion, sesame oil and sesame seeds. Keep cooking until the zucchini is soft and translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes. Do not overcook.
6. Taste and add more saeujeot or salt if needed.
