Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • Frozen dumplings 1/2 pack
  • Green onion 1/2 bunch
  • Vegetable oil 1 swirl
  • Chili powder 1.5 tablespoons
  • Store-bought beef bone broth 500g
  • Minced garlic 1/2 tablespoon
  • Beef dashi a pinch
  • Galbi tang dashi a pinch
  • Egg 1
  • Soaked glass noodles a little
  • White pepper a little

Recipe 🍳

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a pot, then sauté finely chopped green onion and chili powder over medium heat until the chili oil is released without burning.
  2. Once the aroma of chili oil rises, pour in 500g of store-bought beef bone broth and bring to a boil.
  3. When the broth boils, add 1/2 tablespoon of minced garlic, along with a small amount of beef dashi and galbi tang dashi to adjust seasoning.
  4. Add frozen dumplings and simmer for about 2 minutes 30 seconds.
  5. Gently beat one egg and slowly pour it into the broth, then let it sit undisturbed until softly set and fluffy.
  6. Add soaked glass noodles and let them cook through with residual heat, then serve in bowls and sprinkle with white pepper.
  1. Sauté vegetable oil, green onion, and chili powder in a pot to make chili oil.
  2. Pour in beef bone broth, bring to a boil, then enhance flavor with garlic and dashi.
  3. Add dumplings and simmer, then stir in beaten egg and noodles, finishing with a sprinkle of pepper.

Cooking tips 💡

  • When frying chili powder, avoid high heat as it burns easily and can turn bitter; use medium-low heat and stir quickly.
  • Do not stir immediately after adding egg mixture—let it sit undisturbed so the egg floats up gently and keeps the broth clear.
