1. Remove the squid intestines.  Wash and cut the squid into strips.
2. Wash and cut carrot, onion and spring onion into strips.
3. Prepare the sauce by mixing gochujamg, gochugaru, minced garlic, soy sauce, honey and plum extract.
4. Heat the pan over medium fire and add in cooking oil.
5. Add in onion and carrot into the pan and stir fry for 1 minute.
6. Add in the spring onion and stir fry for another minute. (The reason to add the spring onion later because spring onion is easily cooked compare to carrot and onion :)
7. Add in the squid together with the sauce.  Fry for another few minutes until the squids are cooked.
8. Off the fire, drizzle some sesame oil and garnish with sesame seeds.
