    Vegan Korean Spicy Beef Stew Yukgaejang 육개장 is traditionally made with tons of beef briskets and spicy red pepper flakes gochugaru. This delicious Yukgaejang recipe with mushrooms still has a meaty texture you crave while being keto-friendly, vegetarian, wholesome and plant-based!

    What Is Authentic Yukgaejang 육개장? 

    Yukgaejang is a Korean spicy beef soup. It is one of my favourite comfort Korean food to make on a cold day. The spicy soup instantly warms you up!

    The main ingredient of this traditional Korean dish is beef brisket, beef flank steak, and beef stock. 

    Similarly, if you substitute chicken for beef, the soup is called Dakgaejang 닭개장.

    This Korean spicy beef soup resembles a lot like the spicy tofu soup Sundubu Jjigae 순두부 찌개.

    How To Make Vegan Mushroom Yukgaejang?

    To turn this spicy Korean beef stew recipe vegan style, we use lots of mushrooms in place of beef. It is the perfect Korean Keto food!

    Mushrooms have a nice earth flavor with lots of umami. It is a great way to enjoy that meaty texture while staying plant-based in this savoury broth.

    I recommend using different types of mushrooms to add more complexity to flavour profiles. Feel free to add enoki mushrooms and king oyster mushrooms.

    Since you do not need to boil and tenderize the beef meat, it does not take a lot of time to cook. In fact, spicy yukgaejang with mushrooms cooking time only requires 30 minutes.

    Here are a couple kimchi-forward bowls I am genuinely obsessed with from the blog! Both these recipes are plant-based and vegan!

    Where To Buy Buy Korean Red Chili Pepper Flakes

    You can find Gojuchang (Korean red pepper paste) or

    Gochugaru (Korean hot pepper flakes) at any Korean markets or Asian grocery stores.

    How To Cook Spicy Korean Beef Stew

    This vegan spicy tofu soup with mushrooms should become a household staple. The spicy and savoury broth is addictive. I recommend you make a big batch every time! 

    Add Gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes) or Gojuchang (Korean red pepper paste), Dark Soy Sauce, and Sesame Oil in a small sauce bowl. Mix well. Set aside.

    Use a sharp knife to carefully cut around the firm stem to remove the individual mushroom caps. Clean oyster mushrooms with the tip of a sharp knife.

    Resuscitate shiitake mushrooms quickly by following the instructions HERE.

    Slice mushrooms into bite-size pieces.

    Wash and prep vegetables and aromatics such as leaks, green spring onions, onions and garlic cloves.

    Separate the green and white parts of the leaks and green scallions. Use the white parts for cooking and the green parts for garnishing.

    Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add aromatics (leaks, lots of green onions, onions, and garlic).

    Once you smell the aromatics become fragrant, stir in mushrooms to the large pot. Saute for a few minutes to elevate the natural mushroom flavours.

    Add two cups of broth and 2 cups of cold water or boiling hot water to the stock pot. 

    Add the remaining ingredients, sliced tofu pieces, and seasoning sauce, and continue boiling for 20 minutes. 

    Salt and black pepper to taste.

    Serve and enjoy with a bowl of rice and homemade kimchi.

    What To Serve With Spicy Korean Beef Soup 

    Serve and enjoy with a bowl of rice and homemade kimchi.

    • Korean Green Onion Salad Pamuchim 파무침
    • Korean Jolly Pong Cereal Latte 퐁크러쉬
    • Bibimbap Rice Bowl 비빔밥
    • Easy Caramelized Kimchi Recipe with Brown Butter

    If you are a Korean food lover, I recommend adding this vegan mushroom Korean soup to your healthy meal prep for the week! It is low in carbs and packed with plant based proteins.

    If there are enough reserved stock, I can quickly turn it into a Korean beef noodle soup by adding yam noodles or glass noodles. 

    One thing I love about Korean cooking is that it is even tastier the next day as leftovers. The flavours develop deeper overnight.

    What To Serve With The Best Vegan Yukgaejang Korean Tofu Soup Recipe

    Spicy food is the perfect way to beat summer heat. Your brain will tell your body to sweat to cool down! Kimchi is an excellent addition to a balanced diet and to improve gut health!

      This sounds absolutely delicious! I am always a bit hesitant around Korean food because I don't eat meat, so I love that you've made this vegan while keeping all the delicious flavours.
