5-Star Hotel Stir-fried Aged Kimchi

Rinse the aged kimchi thoroughly under running water to remove the excess seasoning and sourness.

In a bowl with the rinsed kimchi, add minced garlic and the chopped white part of a green onion.

Season the kimchi with perilla oil and plum syrup.

Add a pinch of black pepper and mix all the ingredients thoroughly by hand.

Heat a small amount of cooking oil in a frying pan over high heat. Ensure the pan is hot before adding the kimchi to prevent it from getting mushy.

Add the seasoned kimchi to the hot pan and stir-fry.

Stir-fry for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to overcook.

Finish by drizzling a little more perilla oil and garnishing with sesame seeds.
