kimchi (own preference)
a small pack of glass noodles
seafood (prawns, squids, clams etc)
1 egg

  2. Add in the strips of chicken/pork.
  3. Add in the beancurd, zuccini, glass noodles and seafood. When the ingredients are almost cooked, add in the green chillies.
  4. Add in the kimchi. The amount to add depends on your preference. If you want the soup to be spicy and sour, add more. Else, you can add korean chilli paste.
