Ingredients
- 1 package (12 ounces) sundubu extra soft/silken tofu
- ⅓ cup thinly sliced kimchi
- 3 ounces pork or beef
- 1 to 3 teaspoons gochugaru (Korean red chili pepper flakes)
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil use a little more if using more gochugaru
- 1 cup water or anchovy broth See note
- 2 to 3 tablespoons juice from kimchi
- 1/2 teaspoon saewujeot (salted shrimp) or salt to taste
- pinch black pepper
- 1 scallion, finely chopped
- 1 egg - OPTIONAL
Instructions
- Cut the meat and kimchi into small thin strips. Add the kimchi, meat, gochugaru, garlic and sesame oil to a small pot, and place it over medium heat.
- Stir-fry until the meat is almost cooked, 3 - 4 minutes.
- Pour in water (or broth) and the juice from the kimchi. Bring it to a boil, and continue to boil for 3 - 4 minutes. Skim off the scum.
- Add the soft tofu in big chunks. Stir in the salted shrimp (or salt) to taste (start with 1/4 teaspoon) and black pepper. Cook for 4 -5 minutes. Add the chopped scallion just before removing the pot from the heat. If desired, crack an egg into the stew to serve while it’s still boiling hot.
Notes
- Water is fine for this stew, but use anchovy broth for an extra layer of flavor.
