Soondubu Jjigae Udon (korean Pork Belly Tofu Stew)
This is the ultimate fiery, nourishing, and deeply flavorful Korean comfort stew with chewy udon. It starts with a base of tangy, fermented kimchi and savory pork belly, fried until caramelised to create a powerful, umami-rich foundation. Soft, silken tofu is then gently broken into the bubbling, scarlet-hued broth, creating delicate clouds that melt in your mouth with chewy udon. It’s a complex, satisfying, and deeply restorative one-pot meal that balances spice, sourness, richness, and soft texture in every spoonful.
