- 1/2 stalk Green Onion
- 200g Tofu
- 2 Cheongyang Peppers (Korean chili peppers)

- 2 Tbsp Soybean Paste (Doenjang)
- 1 Tbsp Soup Soy Sauce (Guk-ganjang)
- 1 Tbsp Minced Garlic
- 1 Tbsp Perilla Oil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare all ingredients: Wash the baby napa cabbage, green onion, cheongyang peppers, and red bell pepper thoroughly. Chop the baby napa cabbage into bite-sized pieces. Slice the green onion diagonally and mince the chili peppers. Cut the tofu into cubes.
Step 2
Heat a pot over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp of perilla oil.
Step 3
Once the oil is warm, add 1 Tbsp of minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant.
Step 4
Add 200g of beef short ribs and cook until the meat turns white on the outside. Stir-frying the meat at this stage helps to reduce any gamey odors and enhance its flavor.
Step 5
Pour in 1.5L of the prepared anchovy and kelp broth. Bring it to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, skim off any impurities that rise to the surface.
Step 6
When the broth is boiling, dissolve 2 Tbsp of soybean paste through a sieve into the pot. Using a sieve ensures the soybean paste dissolves smoothly without lumps.
Step 7
Add 1 Tbsp of soup soy sauce to season the stew.
Step 8
Add 1/2 head of baby napa cabbage to the pot. Once it comes back to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender.
Step 9
After 5 minutes, add the 200g of cubed tofu.
Step 10
Add the 1/2 stalk of diagonally sliced green onion.
Step 11
Add the 2 minced cheongyang peppers and 1 red bell pepper. Continue to simmer for another 1 minute. The chili peppers add a pleasant spicy kick.
Step 12
If you have any leftover mushrooms (like shiitake or enoki mushrooms) at home, feel free to add them in at this stage for an even richer texture and flavor.
Step 13
Enjoy this delicious soybean paste stew with a warm bowl of rice! May you have a delightful meal today^^
