Nurungji Chicken and Vegetable Porridge Ingredients- 1 pack Chicken (3 pieces)
- 2L Water
- 280g Nurungji (1 bag)
- 1 Onion (finely chopped)
- 1 Zucchini (finely chopped)
- 1 Carrot (finely chopped)
- 4 Tbsp Yeondu (soy sauce or soup soy sauce can be substituted)
- 1 Tbsp Salt (adjust to taste)
- 2 Tbsp Sesame Oil

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, place 1 pack of chicken (3 pieces) in a pot and add enough water to cover the chicken. Bring to a boil over high heat. Skim off any impurities that rise to the surface for a cleaner broth.
Step 2
Once the chicken is partially cooked, add 2L of water to the pot. This broth base will add depth to the porridge.
Step 3
Add 280g of nurungji (1 bag) to the pot. The nurungji will soften and thicken the porridge, creating a wonderful texture.
Step 4
Prepare 1 onion by washing it thoroughly, then finely chop it and add it to the pot. The sweetness of the onion enhances the porridge’s flavor.
Step 5
Finely chop 1 zucchini and add it to the pot. Zucchini will contribute a soft texture to the dish.
Step 6
Finely chop 1 carrot and add it to the pot as well. Carrots add a beautiful color and a subtle sweetness.
Step 7
Now, move the pot with all the ingredients to medium heat and simmer until the ingredients are tender and the nurungji has softened, about 15-20 minutes. This simmering process allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 8
During the simmering process, add 4 Tbsp of Yeondu (or soy sauce/soup soy sauce) to enhance the umami flavor. Adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Step 9
Finally, add 1 Tbsp of salt to season the porridge. It’s important to taste and adjust the saltiness as needed.
Step 10
Once the chicken is cooked and slightly cooled, remove the bones and shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. Adding this shredded chicken to the porridge makes it even more filling and satisfying.
Step 11
When all the ingredients have melded together and the porridge has reached a thick consistency, your delicious Nurungji Chicken and Vegetable Porridge is ready!
Step 12
Before serving, drizzle 2 Tbsp of sesame oil over the porridge for a nutty aroma, and sprinkle a pinch of sesame seeds for a visually appealing and flavorful finish.
Step 13
Enjoy a hearty and healthy meal with this super simple Nurungji Chicken and Vegetable Porridge, which is both good for you and delicious! It can be enjoyed on its own or with kimchi and other side dishes for an enhanced taste.
