Sundubu Jjigae – Korean tofu stew

(Seafood) Sundubu jjigae- Korean soft tofu stew reminds me of my party days because this is what we would eat at the end of the night. We were drunk and needed something to sober us up and this would do the trick hahah

Fast forward several years, I find myself being a wifey and mama making this for my family… Oh how times have changed🥰

Makes: 2-3 servings

INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup oil
2 TBSP gochugaru
4 cloves garlic, minced
3-4 mussels
4 large shrimps, peeled and devein
2 TBSP low sodium soy sauce
2 TBSP fish sauce
1-2 TBSP sugar
3 cups water
11-22 oz silken tofu  (1 pack is 11 oz)
3 shiitake mushrooms, discard stem and cut into slices
1 jalapeno, cut into slices
2 eggs
Scallion, garnish

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Heat up 1/4 cup of oil. Once it gets hot, cook 2 TBSP gochugaru and 4 cloves of minced garlic for 1 minutes.

2. After 1 minute, add your mussels and shrimp. Get them nice and coated in the spices.

3. Then add 2 TBSP soy sauce, 2 TBSP fish sauce, 1-2 TBSP sugar, mix and then add 3 cups of water.

4. Bring this to a boil then reduce your heat to medium-low and cook for 2-3 minutes

5. After 2-3 minutes, add your silken tofu, mushrooms and jalapeños. Let this cook for another 4-5 minutes

6. After 4-5 minutes, crack in 1 or 2 eggs and turn off heat. Garnish with scallion and enjoy

*note:
– I used shiitake mushrooms but you can use your mushroom of choice. Enoki mushrooms always works great in this.

– if you have a lower spice tolerance, you can skip the jalapeños or de-seed them

– You can substitute your shrimp and muscles with pork belly, spam, beef, chicken or keep it vegetarian and not add any meat.

– Remember to taste test and adjust to your preference

– you can use 1 or 2 packs of tofu. 1 pack is 11 oz

– If you like a lot of tofu in your stew or plan to make this vegetarian, then use 22 oz tofu

– silken or soft tofu works best for this dish but it’s your food bby, if you like hard or firm tofu, you do you😎

– you can also use sesame oil instead of vegetable oil
