THE - Soft Tofu Stew

Since we got home from our Korea getaway, hubby was craving for Soft tofu stew which we had at Insadong.. So he googled some recipes then picked out 1 which he think would taste good and forward them to me so that i could cook it after work..

I have no idea where he got it from, i only had screenshot of the recipe, the address bar wasn't in the pic either.. Here goes:

Soft Tofu Stew



Ingrdients:
* 3 Tbsp sesame oil
* 1/2 lb beef (thinly sliced)
* 1/2 Tbsp garlic, finely chopped
* 2 Tbsp red pepper powder
* 2 cups anchovy stock or beef stock
* 3 cups soft tofu
* 2 Tbsp soy sauce
* 1 lb unshucked clams
* 2 scallion, sliced
* Eggs (optional)

Methods:
1) In a soup pot, stir-fry beef, garlic, red pepper powder in the sesame oil for abt 5 minutes.
2) Add in stock and soy sauce to pot. Bring to simmer.
3) Add in clams and let it cook for abt 5 minutes or till it opens.
4) Gently slide in the soft tofu & add in the scallion. Turn off heat and serve hot!
