1 cup
tofu, sliced
2.5 oz
green onions, cut into 2-inch lengths

soy sauce

Step-by-Step Instructions

Heat a large skillet or frying pan over high heat. Add a small amount of oil, then add the sliced pork and sugar. Stir-fry for about 3 minutes, until the pork starts to brown and release some of its fat.

Add the kimchi and stir well to coat it with the pork drippings. Cover the pan and cook for 5 minutes so the kimchi softens and the flavors blend. Sprinkle in the red chili powder and toss to combine.

Push the pork and kimchi to the sides of the pan to make a small well in the center. Pour in the soy sauce and let it bubble for a few seconds, then stir everything together so the sauce caramelizes slightly.
