Keto Ganjang Gejang

Keto Ganjang Gejang is a rich and savory Korean dish that highlights the umami flavors of soy sauce and crab, while being low in carbs. This unique pasta dish substitutes traditional noodles with zucchini noodles for a delightful, guilt-free experience.

Ingredients

• Zucchini - 2 medium
• Fresh crab meat - 200 grams
• Soy sauce (low sodium) - 4 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic (minced) - 2 cloves
• Ginger (grated) - 1 teaspoon
• Green onions (sliced) - 2 stalks
• Red chili flakes - 1 teaspoon
• Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon
• Cilantro (chopped) - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. Using a spiralizer or a peeler, create zucchini noodles from the two medium zucchinis and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the fresh crab meat with soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes. Mix well to coat the crab evenly.
3. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the crab mixture and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring gently to heat through without breaking the crab meat.
4. Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and toss gently for an additional 3-4 minutes until the noodles are slightly softened but still al dente.
5. Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and chopped cilantro before serving.
