Instructions
Cut the pork meat into large chunks (about 1/2-inch thick). In a pot, preferably with a thick bottom, combine the meat with the ginger and garlic.
Cut the kimchi crosswise into 2 or 3 sections.
Add to the pot with the meat. Add the kimchi juice, broth (or water), and the gochugaru. Bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low. Simmer, covered, until the kimchi and meat are tender, 30 – 40 minutes. If the liquid is evaporating too quickly, reduce the heat a bit further and/or add more liquid.
Stir in the scallions and sugar, toss well, and turn off the heat. Serve with steamed rice.
