My Sundubu Jjigae

• 1 block Tofu
• 1 several ~ 10 Clams
• 15 cm Japanese leek
• 1 Shiitake mushrooms
• 1/4 Onion
• 3 slice Sliced pork
• 1 Egg
• 1 Hot green chili
• 1 Chunky chili oil
• 1 White sesame seeds
• 1 Salt
• 200 ml Water
• 1 tbsp Sesame oil
• 1 tbsp Korean chili powder
• 1/2 tbsp Gochujang
• 1 tbsp Sake
• 1 tsp Sugar
• 1 Grated garlic
• 2 tbsp Dashida

1. Roughly chop 15 cm of Japanese leek and place in a small dish.
2. Add 1 tablespoon of Korean chili powder.
3. It seems like chili powder comes in varying degrees of coarseness, but I use a finely powdered one for soups.
4. Add 1/2 teaspoon of gochujang.
5. Add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar.
6. I like using soft brown sugar.
7. Add grated garlic.
8. I used the tubed kind.
9. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and just under 2 tablespoons of sake.
10. Mix well with a spoon.
11. Soak the clams in water to de-sand.
12. Put the prepared clams in a pot.
13. I prefer using large clams for this.
14. I used small ones in this photo, so I added more.
15. Add onion wedges, pork, sliced shiitake mushrooms and slices of green chili.
16. I use the pork to give the soup a good flavour.
17. Add the combined miso paste.
18. In Step 9, you can easily remove the seeds from the chili if you soak them in water.
19. I use this tofu because they're sold for 50 yen each in my neighborhood store.
20. Spoon the tofu into the pot.
21. Add 2 cups of water.
22. Add just under 2 tablespoons of dashida (Korean stock powder).
23. I used beef-flavoured dashida but the shellfish flavour might be better for this.
24. Simmer over medium heat and when it starts to bubble, drop in an egg.
25. Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavour.
26. Sprinkle white sesame seeds and chunky chili oil to your liking before serving.
27. I used dried cod to make the dashi stock.
28. The resulting stock turned out differently than I had expected, but the cod does add depth to the flavor.
29. I followed one commenter's advice and lightly pan fried the chili powder before adding it to the pot.
30. Just as I was told, the flavour changed noticeably.
31. Be careful not to burn the chili!
