Spicy Stir-Fried Squid

Ojinguh Bokum is a spicy squid dish very similar to nakji bokum. Instead of using octopus tentacles, fresh squids are cut into bite-sized pieces then pan stir-fried with spicy gochujang along with gochugaru. Assortments of vegetable can include green & red chili peppers, mushrooms, green onions, carrots and onions. Some may find ojinguh bokum spicy even diluted with rice that may accompany this dish.
