Cooking tips

  • Since this dish is meant to be served piled high on a bed of white rice and mixed thoroughly, avoid using too much water—simmering it down to a thick, clingy consistency is key to the flavor.
  • Choose high-quality fish cakes with a high meat content to prevent them from breaking apart during cooking and to maintain a firm, chewy texture.

Recommended for

  • Those looking to move beyond basic kimchi stew and enjoy a hearty, fish cake- and meat-packed braised dish.
  • Anyone wanting to top a steaming bowl of rice with a rich, satisfying portion of kimchi stew for a filling, comforting meal.
