- Add in gochugaru, sugar, and gochujang. Saute for a few more seconds or until they start to slightly caramelize.
- Add in kimchi and stir until it’s well coated in the seasonings. Pour in vegetable stock, kimchi brine, light soy sauce, fish sauce & salt.
- Stir, place sliced tofu on top, and cover. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes.
- Finish with sesame oil, turn off heat, and top with green onions. Enjoy!
Notes
- Broth Alternatives: If vegetable broth isn't available, chicken broth is a great alternative.
- Protein: If you'd like to add extra protein to the dish, thinly cut pork belly, Spam, or drained canned tuna are popular choices. Saute your protein with the kimchi, then follow the rest of the recipe instructions. Boil in the broth for 10 - 15 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through.
