About Eomuk bokkeum

Eomuk Bokkeum, or stir-fried fish cakes, is a popular Korean side dish known for its chewy texture and savory-sweet flavor. It typically features thinly sliced fish cakes sautéed with soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and sugar, and is often garnished with sesame seeds and chopped scallions. Variations may include vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or onions for added crunch and color. Originating in Korea, Eomuk Bokkeum showcases the versatility of fish paste and is a staple in home-cooked meals and lunch boxes. While rich in protein from the fish cakes, this dish may be high in sodium and sugar due to seasoning. Opting for lower-sodium soy sauce or reducing added sugar can make the dish healthier. With its balanced blend of textures and flavors, Eomuk Bokkeum is a satisfying addition to Korean cuisine that can be customized to suit dietary preferences.
