Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

1
Prep your ingredients before you start cooking! Cut your zucchini, serrano pepper, enoki mushroom, and green onion. Then measure out exactly 5 oz of water and set aside.
2
In a small pot, stir fry the pork belly over medium heat until it's no longer pink on the outside. Note: pork belly has a decent amount of fat so I do not use any oil, but you can use a little bit if your protein is sticking too much to the pot.
3
Next add the BCD sauce packet directly on top of the partially cooked pork belly. Stir fry the sauce with the pork for about 1 minute. Careful not to burn the sauce too much- lower the heat if needed.
4
Add the sliced serrano pepper if using, and continue stir frying another 30 seconds.
5
Add the 5 oz of water and mix until combined. It might not seem like enough water, but just trust the process! Soft tofu already has a lot of water, which will be added later.
6
Cover and reduce heat to medium low for 4-5 minutes.
7
Add the zucchini, mushrooms, and only HALF of the soft tofu. Cover and let it simmer for another 3-4 minutes. *You can add the whole box of tofu if you want, but in my opinion it's too much. You can save the other half to make a silken tofu side dish or something else.
8
Crack an egg right into the soup and top with chopped green onion. Serve right away with fresh steamed rice!
