Okjubu's Sundubu Ganjang Jorim

A unique braised dish where sundubu is first air-fried until firm on the outside, then topped with a sweet and savory minced beef soy sauce.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Air-frying the sundubu first draws out moisture, giving it a firmer, chewier texture that won’t break apart easily.
  • When stir-frying the beef, use a spatula to break up any clumps and cook quickly so it stays tender.
  • Air fryer times and temperatures vary depending on the thickness of the sundubu and the appliance, so check periodically until the surface is golden and firm.

Recommended for

  • Those wanting a new chewy twist on the classic soft, silky texture of sundubu.
  • Anyone looking for a sweet and savory beef banchan that kids can enjoy together.
  • Those eager to try an inventive tofu dish using an air fryer.
