Kimchi, which Koreans eat with almost every meal, is quite similar to Shan-style sour pickle. If you want to make a soup with sour and spicy kimchi, it will make your rice taste even better.

Besides the main ingredient, kimchi, you can also add other foods like tofu and tuna to prepare a more special and delicious bowl of soup.

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons oil
  • 2 small bowls of kimchi, plus 8 tablespoons of kimchi juice
  • 1/2 onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 block of tofu (cut into medium-sized pieces)
  • 4 stalks of spring onion (thinly sliced)

  • 750 ml chicken stock (or beef stock or vegetable stock) (48 tablespoons)
  • 2 teaspoons fish sauce
  • 1 can of tuna

Step-by-step instructions

1. Heat a pot, add the oil and kimchi, and stir-fry for about 4 to 5 minutes.

2. Next, add the garlic, tofu, and spring onion. Add the kimchi juice and chicken stock (or vegetable stock), turn up the heat, cover with a lid, and let it boil for about 15 to 20 minutes.

3. Add the tuna and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. Add the fish sauce and taste to adjust the seasoning for a light saltiness.

Once the spicy flavor is well balanced, you'll have a delicious bowl of tuna kimchi soup ready.
