Ryu Soo-young's Crispy Anchovy Stir-Fry Recipe

Today, I remembered the fried anchovy stir-fry recipe that Mr. Ryu Soo-young (aka Chef Eo Nam) made on a past TV show.
This crispy, delicious anchovy stir-fry is so good, you can't tell if it's a side dish or a snack for drinks! I decided to make it.
I kept eating it straight from the pan while stir-frying, questioning if it was really meant to be a side dish. It's so addictive!
I made a plate and ate it all in one go. Since it's made with medium-sized anchovies, one paper cup's worth isn't that much. You can easily eat it all in one sitting. I'm planning to make it again soon... it's the perfect snack with beer!
If you like crispy anchovy stir-fry, you should definitely try this recipe.
Measurement 기준: 밥숟가락 (tablespoon), 180ml 컵 (cup)
Ingredients:
1 cup medium-sized anchovies
3-4 cloves garlic
1/3 green onion
3 tablespoons sugar
1 pinch of salt
3-4 swirls of oil
Instructions:
1. Prepare the ingredients.
Measure out 1 cup of medium-sized anchovies. Think of it as about 1 paper cup's worth.
For the other ingredients, finely chop about 1/3 of the white part of a green onion. Slice 3-4 cloves of garlic. If you like garlic, you can add a little more.
2. Dry-fry the anchovies.
Pour 1 cup of anchovies into a dry frying pan (without oil) and start stir-frying over low heat. Expect to stir-fry for about 10-15 minutes. If you stir-fry over medium or high heat, they can burn quickly and taste bitter, so be patient and stir-fry gently over low heat.
Instead of constantly stirring, spread the ingredients out, then mix, spread, and mix again, stir-frying slowly.
3. Remove the powder.
After stir-frying for about 15 minutes, strain through a sieve to remove any remaining powder.
4. Fry in oil.
The pan you used to stir-fry the anchovies may have some remaining powder. Wipe it clean with a paper towel, then add 2-3 swirls of oil generously. I used olive oil.
Once the pan is heated over medium heat, add all the prepared green onions and garlic. Stir quickly to prevent burning.
In this process, the moisture evaporates and they turn golden brown.
Once they are nicely browned, add the crispy anchovies.
Add 3 tablespoons of sugar and 1 pinch of salt (you can omit the salt if you want; it's also good with just the saltiness of the anchovies. Add it if you want it saltier).
Stir-fry evenly over low heat. As the sugar melts, it blends well with the ingredients, completing the crispy and delicious anchovy stir-fry.
5. Completion
This anchovy stir-fry has a crispy texture and savory flavor, making it twice as delicious. The aroma of garlic and green onions that you taste in between eliminates the fishy taste of the anchovies, making it really appealing.
Anchovy stir-fry is usually either too hard or too soft, but this recipe is so crispy, like eating chips or fried chicken, that even kids who don't usually eat anchovy side dishes can enjoy it.
It's not just a side dish, but also savory and 고소해서, so it's great to snack on when you're bored. I ate so much because it was so delicious! I was surprised at how much I had eaten.
As expected from Mr. Ryu Soo-young's recipe, the method is easy and simple. It's great because you can achieve the best taste and texture with minimal ingredients and a simple process. It's great as a side dish, and I think it would also be good as an ingredient in rice balls if you chop it up finely!
If you like crispy anchovy stir-fry, be sure to try it.
Fried Anchovy Stir-fry Points!
1. Stir-fry the anchovies sufficiently in a dry pan to enhance the crispiness and remove impurities and powder for a clean taste.
2. Fry in plenty of oil to make it crispy and delicious, like eating fried chicken.
3. Use fragrant garlic and green onions appropriately to eliminate the fishy smell of the anchovies and enhance the flavor.
4. If you add too much seasoning or stir-fry for too long, it can become soggy, so season simply with sugar and salt and finish quickly to maintain the crispiness.
