I don't even know what 두부 조림 means. Google Translate says "Boiled Tofu." But it's not really boiled. So I tried just 조림 and they said it means, "afforrestation." I'm PRETTY sure that's not what I did to the tofu. To me it means cooking it in some sauce until the liquid starts to disappear. So whatever the word is for that is what it is. Anyone want to define it for me?
This side dish is a nice go-to dish because it's so quick to make. Basically, buy some firm tofu, cut it into thin squares and fry it in some oil. When it's almost all cooked, top it with the Korean staple of soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and sliced green onions. Go easy on the soy sauce because it can be really salty. Cook for a few more minutes and then eat it. That's it!
(I use about 2 parts soy sauce to 1 part sesame oil. Everything else you add to your preference.)
Optional: My sister dips her tofu in egg before she fries it and it's super good that way too. :)
Oh and I almost forgot! Don't forget to wash your tofu before you cook it. I dunno why, my mom says to. That's why.
