About this dish
Ground perilla seed turns into a thin, nutty coating on each strand of bracken fern.

The perilla oil is split in two: half goes into the raw seasoning so the soy and garlic soak into the chewy fibers, and the other half carries the green onion's aroma in the pan.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Cut 250 g of boiled bracken into 6 cm lengths, then tear any thick and fibrous stems lengthwise with your fingers so the grain opens up and the seasoning can penetrate deeply into each strand.
- 2
In a bowl, combine bracken with 1 tbsp soup soy sauce, 1 tsp minced garlic, and 3/4 tbsp perilla oil.
Mix well by hand and let the bracken absorb the seasoning for 5 full minutes.
- 3
Heat a pan over medium and add the remaining 3/4 tbsp perilla oil.
Saute 25 g green onion for 30 seconds until fragrant so the scallion aroma infuses the oil before the bracken goes in.
- 4
Add the seasoned bracken to the pan and stir-fry over medium heat for 2 minutes, stirring continuously, until the surface moisture fully evaporates and the fern strands turn noticeably chewy.
- 5
Pour in 80 ml water and 1 tbsp ground perilla seeds, reduce to low heat, and simmer for 5 minutes until the liquid reduces to a thin glaze and a rich nutty aroma rises from the pan.
- 6
Turn off the heat, scatter 1 tsp sesame seeds evenly over the bracken, and fold gently once so the seeds cling to the glossy strands and add a final light crunch to the finished dish.
