Ingredients

Main

  • Squid5
  • Minced pork300 g
  • Tofu1 block
  • Carrot1/2
  • Green oniona little
  • King oyster mushroom3
  • Chives1/4 bunch
  • Eggs1
  • Red chili1
  • SaltA little
  • FlourA little
  • Black pepperA little

Directions

  1. 1
    Step 1

    Finely chop the prepared vegetables and mushrooms, and dice the squid tentacles as well.

  2. 2
    Step 2

    Wrap the tofu in cheesecloth and squeeze out the excess water.

  3. 3
    Step 3

    Combine all the chopped ingredients, then season with egg, salt, and pepper. Adding a little flour helps the filling hold together when sliced later.

  4. 4
    Step 4

    Lightly coat the inside of the cleaned squid body with flour — this helps the filling stick to the squid.

  5. 5
    Step 5

    Stuff the filling into the squid body, filling it only about 80% full so it doesn't burst while steaming.

  6. 6
    Step 6

    Secure the opening with a toothpick so the filling doesn't spill out.

  7. 7
    Step 7

    Place the stuffed squid in a steamer over boiling water and steam.

  8. 8
    Step 8

    Steam for about 20 minutes, switching the top and bottom pieces halfway through for even cooking.

  9. 9
    Step 9

    Let cool slightly, slice into bite-sized pieces, and serve with scallion kimchi, dongchimi broth, or vinegar soy sauce.
