Directions

To Cook

1. Heat saucepan, add pork and sauté gently for a few minutes or until light in colour. Do not brown meat. Add kimchi and cook for about 1 min, stirring. Add kimchi juice and water to the pork and kimchi mix and bring it to a boil. Skim off any impurities and simmer gently for at least 20-25 mins, lid covered.
2. Add onions and continue simmering jjigae for another 10 mins. Jjigae is ready when kimchi is well softened.
3. Prior to serving add tofu and butter. Serve hot and bubbling in dookbaegi or saucepan.
4. Your Kimchi Jjigae is ready!
5. N.B: Serve jjigae in a dookbaegi for more authentic Korean presentation.
