I love kimchi jijgae...for it is comfort food for me :) Easy to prepare and it is appetizing...slurp! Whenever I made kimchi , I make sure I make a big load of it and have extra tubs enough for making kimchi jijgae through out the year. Kimchi appears very often on the dining table as a side dish. WB doesn't like the smell of kimchi :( but I love my homemade one ...LOL! I normally add fresh mushrooms and prawns to the kimchi jijgae. I have the whole claypot of kimchi jijgae all to myself. Believe it...I can be a glutton and WB finds it amazing how I could tuck in the whole claypot of kimchi stew at one go. Nay, the claypot is for a single person so it is not really that big a portion :p You can serve rice or noodle with this kimchi jijgae.
