Ingredients

• Water: 2 cups (250ml each)
• Pork for stew or neck meat: 250g
• Aged kimchi: 200g
• Kimchi juice: 5 tablespoons
• Sesame oil: 1 teaspoon
• Half an onion
• Green chili peppers: 2
• Green onion: a small amount

For Marinating Pork

• Gochujang (Korean red chili paste): 1 tablespoon
• Mirim (cooking wine): 1 tablespoon
• Soup soy sauce: 1/2 tablespoon
• A pinch of salt
• Minced garlic: 1 tablespoon
• Ground black pepper: a pinch

Instructions

• Marinate the pork with the listed ingredients for at least 30 minutes.
• In a pot, stir-fry the sliced kimchi, marinated pork, kimchi juice, and sesame oil on low heat for 3-5 minutes. (The pork already contains fat, so you don’t need much sesame oil.)

• Add 1 cup of water to the fried kimchi and bring to a boil. Then, add the remaining cup of water for a richer broth.
• Once it starts boiling, add onion and tofu.

• Add soup soy sauce and let all ingredients blend well.
• Add minced garlic and one sliced chili pepper. Adjust the seasoning with salt, then add green onions and the remaining chili pepper. Boil for a moment more, then finish.

This recipe creates a delicious and comforting Pork Kimchi Stew, perfect for chilly days. The stew is not only tasty but also packed with nutrients, making it a healthy choice for any meal.
