After that, you need to wait until the onion has cooled down and add it to the sliced squid.
Step 3
Now take the carrots, wash them, peel and grate with large holes. It is better, of course, to use a special grater, with which carrots are usually cooked in Korean. Put the grated carrots on a preheated frying pan, after pouring three tablespoons of vegetable oil on it. You also need to add sugar and paprika to the carrots. Now roast the carrots for five minutes. Keep in mind that the fire should be quite high, so make sure to stir the carrots regularly to prevent them from burning. After frying, let the mixture cool and add to the squid and onion.
