Instructions
- Prepare vegetables and tofu: Slice the onion thickly and chop the green onion thinly. Cut the tofu into finger-thick pieces and drain excess water.
- Fry the tofu: Heat sesame oil in a light pan and fry the tofu pieces until golden brown.
- Wrap tofu with kimchi: Roll the golden tofu pieces with fresh kimchi to form kimchi-wrapped tofu rolls.
- Fry aromatics: Add sesame oil back to the pan and fry the green onions to release flavor, then add the sliced onions and thali mushrooms and fry together.
- Assemble in pot: Place the kimchi-wrapped tofu rolls neatly in a pot with the seam side down to prevent unrolling.
- Add liquids and simmer: Pour the seasoning sauce and vegetable stock around the edge of the pot. Simmer for about 25 minutes until cooked through.
