kimchi sundubu

this is my comfort meal. it's super easy, just throwing stuff in a pot. make sure you have rice!

• 1 cup kimchi (i like cabbage but others will work also)
• 1 onion
• a few cloves garlic
• soft silken tofu (ideally korean/asian brand)
• soup seasonings (i add all of these, but add what appeals to you)
  • soy sauce + salt
  • dashi
  • 3-5 dried anchovies, heads cut off and guts taken out
  • a spoonful gochujang
  • a spoonful soybean paste
  • sesame oil
  • gochugaru
• other items to put in the stew, depending on what's in the fridge
  • mandu
  • tteok
  • egg
  • chicken
  • broccoli
  • noodles

chop the onion. put some oil in the pot and put the onion and kimchi in there. chop the garlic while they cook for a couple minutes (until the onions get clear and fragrant). put the garlic in there and stir fry until you get bored.

pour ~a bowl and a half of water in the pot, enough to cover the vegetables. if you have things that need to cook for a while, like broccoli, meat, or anything frozen, add that now. bring the water to a boil, stirring occasionally.

now, add your soup seasonings and taste often. adjust to your taste! i usually end up with 1 spoonful each of soybean paste, gochujang, sesame oil, and gochujang, a good splash of dashi, a couple anchovies, and some sesame seeds. let it simmer for a while until you get hungry.

once it's boiling, add your dubu and an egg. boil until the egg is cooked to your liking.

serve with rice and with green onion on top if you wanna be fancy. enjoy :)
