@itshelenmelon: how to make kimchi jjim!! This beginner friendly recipe is ready in 1 hour and tastes absolutely INCREDIBLE! Think of it like kimchi jigae’s older, bolder, more flavorful cousin! all you really need is well-fermented kimchi (the older the better!) and pork belly. This is one of my favorite Korean dishes and works well as leftovers too. Make sure to serve with a big bowl of rice! PORK: Choose pork belly with an even distribution of fat. Not too little, not too much. A good alternative is pork butt! KIMCHI: Well-fermented kimchi is key to this recipe! It MUST be old kimchi! I used uncut whole kimchi (mugeunji) which can be found in Asian groceries! TIP: If your kimchi is not fermented enough, add 1 tbsp vinegar INGREDIENTS (feeds 2): — approx. 1 lb pork belly — approx. 1-1.5 lb kimchi — 1/2 white onion, sliced — 1 tbsp minced garlic — 2-3 green onions (OPTIONAL) — 1/2 tbsp doenjang (OPTIONAL) — 1/2 tbsp soup soy sauce — 1/4 cup kimchi juice — 1 cup water #kimchi #kimchijjim #koreanfood #EasyRecipe #porkbelly
