Ingredients

Main Ingredients (1 serving)

  • Dried Pasta 100g
  • Canned Diced Tomatoes 1/2 can (200g)
  • Kimchi 50g
  • Garlic 1 clove
  • Chikuwa (Fish Cake) 2 sticks

Seasonings

  • Olive Oil 1 tbsp
  • Chicken Bouillon Powder 1 tsp
  • Sugar 1 tsp
  • Pasta Water 3 tbsp
  • Grated Cheese (to taste)
  • Dried Parsley (to taste)

Steps

  1. Peel and mince 1 clove of garlic.
  2. Cut 2 sticks of chikuwa in half lengthwise, then slice thinly on the diagonal.
  3. Bring 1L of water to a boil, add 1/2 tbsp of salt, and start cooking 100g of dried pasta according to package directions.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced chikuwa, and sauté until fragrant.
  5. Once the garlic is fragrant, add 50g of kimchi and stir-fry. (This is the key!) Sautéing the kimchi mellows its sourness and adds depth.
  6. Add 1/2 can (200g) of canned diced tomatoes and stir well. Simmer over low heat for about 2 minutes until the pasta is cooked.
  7. Transfer the cooked pasta to the frying pan with the sauce.
  8. Add 1 tsp of chicken bouillon powder, 1 tsp of sugar, and 3 tbsp of pasta water. Stir-fry to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.
  9. Plate the pasta and sprinkle with grated cheese and dried parsley to finish. Enjoy!
