Ingredients
8 ounces shell pasta
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup kimchi, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cups vegetable broth
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the chopped kimchi to the pot and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the vegetable broth, whole milk, and heavy cream. Stir to combine.
Add the shell pasta, soy sauce, sugar, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cover the pot.
Simmer for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Remove the lid and stir in the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the creamy kimchi shells hot, garnished with sliced green onions.
