Instructions
- 1
Heat a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the pork belly and sauté for 3-4 minutes until some fat renders and the edges turn slightly crispy.
- 2
Add the chopped aged kimchi to the pot and stir-fry for 5 minutes, allowing the kimchi to absorb the pork fat and soften.
- 3
Pour in the 2 cups of broth or water. Add the sliced onion, gochugaru, and minced garlic, stirring well to combine.
- 4
Bring the stew to a rolling boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer gently for 15 minutes to deepen the savory, tangy flavors.
- 5
Carefully arrange the tofu slices and green onions on top of the stew. Simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes until the tofu is heated through.
- 6
Serve boiling hot directly from the pot alongside steamed white rice.
