A delightful stir-fried squid dish with a savory soy-ginger marinade, perfect for a quick and flavorful meal.
Combine the fresh ginger, light soy sauce, and mirin in a mixing bowl.
Use a whisk to ensure the marinade ingredients are well combined.
Add the fresh squid to the marinade and mix until evenly coated. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
Marinating allows the flavors to infuse into the squid for a more flavorful dish.
Heat a wok over high heat and add a small amount of oil.
Ensure the wok is hot before adding the squid to achieve a good sear.
Remove the squid from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Add the squid to the wok and stir-fry for 5 minutes.
Avoid overcrowding the wok to ensure even cooking.
Pour the reserved marinade into the wok and stir for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Stir constantly to prevent the sauce from burning.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately.
Serve with steamed rice and a side of vegetables for a complete meal.
