Cut kimchi into 2 cm pieces, slice zucchini into half-moons, and slice scallion.
Heat oil in a pot; sauté kimchi and chili flakes over medium heat for 4 minutes to cook off moisture.

🌟 Pro Chef Tips
- • Sauté the kimchi first for a rounder, deeper broth.
- • Tear small dough pieces so each one cooks through evenly.
⚠️ Avoid Common Pitfalls
- ❌ If dough pieces stick, separate them once with chopsticks right after adding.
- ❌ If the broth is too sour, balance it with 1/4 teaspoon sugar.
🧊 Storage & Reheating Advice
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm over low heat in a skillet with a tiny dab of fresh butter to restore full aroma.
