Ingredients

2 servings

  • 250 g aged, sour Kimchi (coarsely chopped)
  • 150 g pork belly (thinly sliced)
  • 200 g firm tofu (sliced)

  • 1 tbsp Gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

Method

  1. Render the pork belly slices in a pot over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes until lightly browned and crispy.
  2. Add the chopped aged kimchi and onion strips to the pot, stir-frying them with the pork fat for 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the Gochugaru chili flakes and soy sauce, roasting them for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the water or Dashi broth, stir thoroughly, and bring the stew to a rolling boil.
  5. Lower the heat, cover with a lid, and let it simmer gently for 15 minutes until the kimchi becomes tender.
