Ttukdak Hyung's Brisket Sundubu Jjigae

A spicy stew made with brisket oil to create a savory chili oil, with squeezed and mashed tofu added for a crumbly, bibim-jjigae-like texture.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Squeezing out the water from regular tofu and crumbling it creates a unique, crumbly texture that is a cross between bibim-jjigae and sundubu jjigae.
  • When making chili oil, stir-fry the green onions and gochugaru quickly over medium-low heat without burning, as they can become bitter if scorched.
  • Finishing the seasoning with anchovy sauce or fish sauce will further deepen the stew's umami flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to try a tofu stew with a unique, crumbly, and hearty texture different from traditional sundubu jjigae.
  • Those who want a rich and spicy brisket soup dish, like a Korean BBQ restaurant's lunch special.
  • Those who want to enjoy a hearty meal or a side dish with a savory and spicy stew.
