Prepare all ingredients. If using syrup instead of oligosaccharide, reduce the amount to avoid excessive sweetness.

Soak frozen garaetteok in water until softened.

Add 2 tbsp of red pepper powder. Adjust to 1.5 tbsp if you prefer less spice.

Heat 3 tbsp of cooking oil in a pan. Use any neutral oil like canola oil.

Add 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp sugar to the pan.

Add 1 tbsp oligosaccharide or syrup. Stir gently over low heat.

Add soaked garaetteok and chopped green onion to the pan. Stir-fry gently.

Simmer until the sauce thickens and the garaetteok is chewy.
