Instructions to make Nakji Bokkeum (Korean Spicy Octopus Stirfry):

- In a large wok or saute pan, bring 2 teaspoons of oil up to high heat, then stir fry the octopus just until all the pieces turn opaque. Set aside in a large dish or platter. No need to salt the octopus if it hasn't been rinsed of the salt from the ocean water.
- Keeping the heat on high, preheat 1 Tablespoon of oil in your wok/saute pan, and stir fry half your veg, just until they all get a bit of sear. (If this is the batch with your onions, onions just starting to turn translucent is a good indication of when they're ready.) - - Season with just a pinch of salt and set aside with the octopus.
- Repeat Step 4 with the rest of your veg.
- Keeping the heat on high, put 2 Tablespoons oil in your wok/saute pan, and add your paste right after. Give it a good stir so the oil will lightly cook the garlic and ginger and caramelize the sugar in the paste. This should only take 15 to 20 seconds.
- Keeping the heat on high, add the octopus and veg back into the wok/saute pan along with 1/4 cup water, and toss thoroughly until all the paste/sauce is well integrated with the octopus and veg. - - That's it! Enjoy with a bowl of steamed rice. :)
