Halve, peel, and thinly slice @red onion{1}. Mince @garlic{2} and @ginger{1%tbsp}. Remove tough stems and thinly slice @kale{1%bunch}. Finely chop @chili pepper{1}(seeds removed if less heat desired).

Add the garlic, ginger, and ¼ tsp chopped chili pepper to the pot, and cook ~{30%seconds} until fragrant.

Add @ground pork{12%oz} and cook, breaking up pieces, ~{6%minutes} to ~{8%minutes} until no longer pink. Season with @salt{1%tsp} and @pepper{1%tsp}.

Add @water{4%cups} and @pho stock concentrate{2%unit} to the pot. Stir to combine, then add the kale and @soy sauce{2%tbsp}. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for ~{5%minutes}.

Once the kale has slightly softened, add @udon noodles{2%packs}. Cook ~{5%minutes} until al dente. Taste and season with @salt{1%tsp} and @pepper{1%tsp} as necessary.
