Solo Cooking God's Guni Tofu Kimchi Stir-Fry

Instead of blanching tofu, it's pan-seared to golden crispiness for maximum richness, paired with a savory pork and kimchi stir-fry—perfect as a standout side dish

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Cooking tips

  • For best results, sear all sides of the tofu, but if it’s too cumbersome, just ensure the front and back surfaces are properly golden.
  • Adding 1 spoon of squid sauce during cooking intensifies the umami depth characteristic of stir-fried kimchi.
  • Steaming under the lid first ensures the pork and kimchi stay juicy and never tough—this is the key technique.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a rich, spicy, and savory side dish perfect with makgeolli or soju.
  • Home cooks looking to upgrade their tofu dishes beyond regular blanched tofu kimchi with better texture and deeper savoriness.
