👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Prepare the snails: Scrub the snails under cold running water to remove any dirt or sand. Soak them in a bowl of salted water for at least 15-20 minutes (or longer, up to an hour, changing the water if it becomes cloudy) to help them purge any grit. Rinse thoroughly again.
⏱️ 20 minutes
2
Prepare aromatics: Finely mince the tender white and pale green parts of the lemongrass stalks. Mince the garlic cloves and bird's eye chilies. If using, add a teaspoon of sugar to the fish sauce.
⏱️ 5 minutes
3
Stir-fry aromatics: Heat the cooking oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the minced lemongrass and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the minced garlic and chilies and stir-fry for another 30 seconds until the garlic is golden and aromatic, being careful not to burn it.
⏱️ 1 minute
4
Cook the snails: Add the cleaned snails to the wok. Increase the heat to high. Stir-fry vigorously for 5-7 minutes, tossing constantly, until the snails are cooked through and have opened slightly. They should be firm to the touch.
⏱️ 5-7 minutes
5
Season and finish: Pour in the fish sauce (and sugar, if using). Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, coating the snails evenly, until the sauce has slightly thickened and glazed the snails. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
⏱️ 1-2 minutes
6
Serve immediately: Transfer the hot Ốc Hương to a serving platter. Serve piping hot with the salt-pepper-lime dip on the side.
⏱️ 1 minute
